Wise Man Built His House

Lyrics

(Folk song)

1. Oh the wise man built his house upon the rock (repeat twice)
And the rains came tumblin’ down.

2. Oh the rains came down and the floods came up, (repeat twice)
But the house on the rock stood firm.

3. Oh the foolish man built his house upon the sand (repeat twice)
And the rains came tumblin’ down.

4. Oh the rains came down and the floods came up (repeat twice)
And the house on the sand went swoooosh.
