Dolly Parton - Sorrow's Tearing Down the House lyrics

Sorrow's Tearing Down the House

(Mel Tillis - Kent Westberry)

I met you and we married we planned our future well

We built our home on happiness then suddenly it fell

It wasn't long there after our love began to tilt

Sorrow's tearing down the house that happiness once built.

First came the weekly parties that never seemed to end

And then came the heartbreak brought by so-called friends

I guess that I'm as much to blame and while we share the guilt

Sorrow's tearing down the house that happiness once built.

--- Instrumental ---

First came the weekly parties that never seemed to end

And then came the heartbreak brought by so-called friends

I guess that I'm as much to blame and while we share the guilt

Sorrow's tearing down the house that happiness once built.

Sorrow's tearing down the house that happiness once built...
