Lyrics:
This ole house once knew the children
This ole house once new a wife
This ole house was home and comfort
As we fought the stormy life
This ole house once rang with laughter
This ole house heard many shouts
Now she trembles in the darkness
When the lightning walks about
Ain’t a gonna need this house no longer
Ain’t a gonna need this house no more
Ain’t got time to fix the shingles
Ain’t got time to fix the floor
Ain’t a got time to oil the hinges
Nor to mend no window pane
Ain’t a gonna need this house no longer
She’s a getting ready to meet the saint
This ole house is getting shaky
This ole house is getting old
This ole house lets in the rain
This ole house lets in the cold
Oh my knees are getting chilly
But I feel no, feel no pain
‘Cos I see an angel peaking
Through the broken window pane
Ain’t a gonna need this house no longer
Ain’t a gonna need this house no more
Ain’t got time to fix the shingles
Ain’t a gotta time to fix the floor
Ain’t got time to oil the hinges
Nor to mend no window pane
Ain’t a gonna need this house no longer
She’s a getting ready to meet the saint
This ole house is afraid of thunder
This ole house is afraid of storms
This ole house just groans and trembles
When the night flings out its arms
This ole house is getting feeble
This ole house is in need of paint
Just like me it’s tuckered out
But I’m getting ready to meet the saint
Ain’t a gonna need this house no longer
Ain’t a gonna need this house no more
Ain’t got time to fix the shingles
Ain’t got time to fix the floor
Ain’t got time to oil the hinges
Nor, nor mend no window pane
Ain’t a gonna need this house no longer
She’s a getting ready to meet the saint
Ain’t a gonna need this house no longer
Ain’t a gonna need this house no more
Ain’t got time to fix the shingles
Ain’t got time to fix the floor
Ain’t got time to oil the hinges
Nor, nor mend no window pane
Ain’t a gonna need this house no longer
She’s a getting ready to meet the saint
Ain’t a gonna need this house no longer
Ain’t a gonna need this house no more
Ain’t got time to fix the shingles (fade out…)

If Elvis had a son, it would be Shakin' Stevens. Hands down one of the best ❤
one of the best I never heard of until now. 43 Toronto
,💯Agree❤❤
If Elvis fathered an illegitimate son who was adopted by a Welsh family
Elvis from aliexpress🤣🤣
Unfortunately, Elvis did not have a son.
He had a musically untalented daughter.
Shakin is his true son in the spiritual and musical sense.
In some segments, even better than Elvis.
Who’s listening in 2024 to this brilliant singer 👍.
👍👍👍👍🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺😊
2021 here in Canada -- frst time hearing/seeing him.
2021
Happy dayz old brother 👌🕺🕺🕺
Me! I grew up this! LOVE it!!! 👍👍👍😃
They should put this song back on the radio
Yeah, right?! 👍
The Welsh Elvis at his finest
Shakin Stevens 1980s hunk . Heart-throb. Nice guy .thank you for this happy wonderful song that will never grow old..love ya xx❤
I’m an American. I was a teenager in the early to late 80s. I wasn’t s’posed to be enthralled with Shakin’ Steven’s. Well, F*** ‘em, I WAS!
I still have to struggle to find any of Shaky’s stuff. Thank goodness for the internet.
I NEVER got to see any of these vids or hear half of these songs that he released ‘round 40 YEARS ago!
He IS a great artist and I love his work! 👍
And he is still going at 75. Get shaking.
Who else had a crush on this man ?
He looked fun!
Playing this for you mum. Have a dance in heaven you angel.
Memories of my teenage years, bloody marvelous 😃👍
Yep me too .... great childhood
Are you "50 something" too 👍
@@mrtoptenatten just turned 56
@@marklynch3149 53 myself 👍
Same 47 here! Thanks Mum for bringing me up on this gem!
You never changed shaky we love you❤
He is one of the most beautiful male singers ever to have walked and sang on the planet.
Damn shaky was awesome, such feel good music, belting out happy vibes in a great time to be alive
Gotta love an 80s
Top act
Performing 50s style music...
I'm 55 now
This came out when I was 15...I was a New York kid whose family moved to Ireland and UK in 1981
Even though I was more a classic rock and Heavy Metal fan
I thought Shaky was Absolutely brilliant..
His sound was so Authentic
His Voice was Awesome (Welsh..go figure)
Missing my teen years listening to this
I recall my sister and I would put on little shows for my parents when I was a kid, me going up on my toes like Shaky was a forte of mine. We used to get behind the sofa and do the Smiths crisp advert too. happy times.
If you listening this song in 2021 you are a legend
i'm 73 years old now, been hearing this song all my life. always evoked an emotion from me, and now more than ever. my house is getting old, children gone, needs paint, etc., but i'm not going to work on it much any more as i'm nearing the time when i "meet the saints". originally i listened to stuart hamblin's version.
That time of year thou mayst in me behold
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
Bare ruin'd choirs, where late the sweet birds sang.
In me thou see'st the twilight of such day
As after sunset fadeth in the west,
Which by and by black night doth take away,
Death's second self, that seals up all in rest.
In me thou see'st the glowing of such fire
That on the ashes of his youth doth lie,
As the death-bed whereon it must expire,
Consum'd with that which it was nourish'd by.
This thou perceiv'st, which makes thy love more strong,
To love that well which thou must leave ere long.
Same with me Richard
Being a country song, the Stuart Hamblen version has a very different vibe to it and also slightly different lyrics. I prefer the Shakin' Stevens version, as the melody seems to better fit the lyrics, especially I love how he sings "Ain't got time to fix the shingles". The Hamblen version sounds too happy for the lyrics to my ears.
Nice attitude to everything sir, wise words 👍
Whenever I hear this I always get Elvis vibes
One of my all time favourite singers and the reason why I still have no problem wearing double denim.
"Double Denim" never heard it said that way... but I do live under Rock... I like it.. and The Rock.
aint nothing wrong with double denim.
Apparently double denim is in again 🤣🤣
@@smurfmummy3106 what aint been brought back ? Fashion just repeats just gets better over time
Double denim is not a crime 😃
I am 79 years old and love him he makes me feel young ❣️❣️❣️
Love him , my dad brought me his LP when I was little was my very Frist LP of my own....
This is the song that made Shakin' Stevens a music staple!
Best version ever...and I still play it on my radio shows! ❤
Memories of better times.
I make you Wright
:(
me
my teenage years i can still do the dance 🕺and green door and hey Julie
@@alsokhanvari747 fancy footwork!!!!
I am. Just discovered him! I’m hooked!!!!
He is brilliant.
You just discovered him .I am so pleased .check out all his work .He's just up there with the best
A great song, it's such a shame that Shaky no longer rocks like he used to.
I'm starting to think that Shakin Stevens is the king of rock n roll and Elvis is the Prince.
Not quite
40 years later and I'm only beginning to appreciate how good a singer he is
Can't ever get over our old music It's the best ever
@@mary-annegreyvenstein9910 Indeed! I miss the 80s.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Same!
Man kann einfach nicht genug von shaky bekommen.
Shakin Stevens ist der weltbeste Musiker.
Keiner kann ihm das Wasser reichen.
Brings bk so many child memorys all the 43 years i been a fan and i still love it and him xx
I love it! I used to dance with my brother RIP all Shakin Stevens songs. We had a great time, we love Rock and Roll. Thank you for sharing 👏👏♥️
England's 1980s answer to Elvis Presley!
He’s Welsh
I went to Mexico in 1982 (or so. I’m not sure) w/my private swing band project & picked up a Shakin’ record ‘cuz I thought he looked cool (I’d just discovered rockabilly music). Man, alive!, was I right! “This Ole House “, “Marie Marie”, “Hot Dog”… they were all there & I became practically the only one in my (U.S.) high school who even knew of him (I won’t even say much ‘bout the Dave Edmunds record I got)!
Well, f*** ‘em. I knew I was right! Bless the U.K. for being sharp enough to bring this guy to my attention! 👍♥️🎶😊
Used to listen to this in Pakistan and Nigeria of all places. 1980s.
Put's a smile on my face every time I hear this song . 😉
Comfort
Shaky. Very best Singer of my heart. First single was marie marie. 1983 or 1984. great.
Me
👍💓💓💓💓
Ok, Thanos.
Was in my early teens back then,! Born 23rd May 1968, from northern Ireland UK, 🤝🇬🇧♥️ , an old guy now,! 😁
I love this man terrific voice and fun music Old School Rocks from Desiree Fox from East Perth WA
I'm 24 and I can sing every word of every shaky song, thanks dad! I wish I was around in the 80s haha
You would’ve loved it. It was the best.
26 here, love Shaky and wish I was around in the 80s too lol
My daughter and some friends watched the filming of this....in Suffolk Unless I'm wrong, one of her teachers bought it some time later and did it up. Great days!
Takes me back 40 years when I was only 21. I used to dance like that and hearing it all over again makes me want to dance the same, but dare I? I'd end up on my back an totally breathless :D
Me too I'm 65 now totally knackered lol
That means yr only 61 thats not old...go for it
me is 66 and bugger it I will give it a go..
@@mikegremlin5249 that's the spirit...I'll turn 50 this june and I'm a singer in a rock 'n roll band and still going that way, dancing all over the stage. I will keep on going doing that as long as I can...and as long as the music turns you on....you never to old to dance
Yea we will
Love this song from 79 or 80 ... I was born in 1970 and don't cheat with looking up.
Love you mr Stevens. Hope this song pays some of your bills.
Brings bk childhood memories love this song Ur amazing person always have always will be ❤❤
Shaky's first UK No.1 back in March 1981 and it was, still is and always will be a fine song.
It's not the original though
Apparently somebody else did it before him though?
@@richallenxbox1976 the original is from 1958 still a great tune
He made it famous tho😅
I just remembered the song and it's still brilliant. Have it saved now to my play list. The good old day's. Where have all the years gone?
He is great, look the dancing, look how he throw that ball. Elvis would loved it. But,....Elvis was Elvis.
Lucas, verry sincerely.
Thank jou mister Steven's, it helped Me to survived the 80's. Eddy and Gene-fan.
I am there's nothing better than Shakin Stevens
Love the Welsh Elvis ❤❤
Bought this single on 45 vinyl about 40 yrs ago! I was 11 or 12 years old
I'm like this song for shakin Steven more
Gave muziek van shaking stevens.❤❤😅😅
Stuart Hamblen wrote this song & Rosemary Clooney 1st recorded this back in 1954. Very nicely done for Video effects & keeping alive.
I knew I was little singing with family..Did not have memories from 1980. I was 4 years old
Best song ever recorded, bar none.
really one of the best, I can`t stop listening to him
Love it...Elvis would be Proud
Mississippi
Yes, because everyone remembers THIS Elvis Presley. Haha ;)
Pulled out my gnashers, tightened my incontinent nappy, took a firm hold of my zimmer and wiggled and waggled across the room ! Lets go champ.
My best singer going, I'll alway have his songs on,
The 80s are alive again and more clearly than ever
This was retro music in the 1980s :)
He's a copy cat from a song way before the 80's. So many artists just copy others...so little creativity any longer and they even destroy the meaning of the original artist. th-cam.com/video/0WhLhF12TBE/w-d-xo.html
@@regencymanagement4374 That may be so, but I would always prefer Shaky's versions.🙂
@@martinabendel5377 What version sounds better is not the point. Would you be OK with someone ripping off your songs and the music that you poured your life into? This copycat should try to create his own musical works or at least keep all the words from the original version and not change the content or meaning of the songs he takes from others.
Shakys back in HD !!! Hope this is the 1st of many.... Go on SHAKY !!!!!!!
Brings back nice childhood memories. I love this song.
I run out of credit this morning
Hell always be My favorite
My brother tells me 'that ole house's is near Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk. It's since been done up, may have to drive out that way to give it a look...
Shaky's knees have had a good workout over the years. A miracle he isn't crippled now.
Before choosing`the commercial way with versions and songs like this one, he and his backing band the Sunsets were one of the most powerful outfits of vintage Rock`,n `Roll and Rockablly in the late 70ies and early 80ies...
Was just fixing up my house and remembered this song. Cup of tea break and a bit of Shakie f yeah
Well done shakin Stevens I bet you Live in a beautiful house now.but the.old house has a lot of memories fly high sweetheart xxoo
Very happy song.
Best singer EVER!
He IS a total legend! :-)
Hes really good
Andy well said that man 🙌🏻😎
The Welsh Elvis. I loved Shaky when I was four years old. I used to dance to his songs for my nan when I was tiny. This song’s still great.

this old house is all i can afford to live in. Thanks NWO
Sounds like rock 'n roll!
This old house once knew my children
This old house once knew my wife
This old house was home and comfort
As we fought the storms of life
This old house once rang with laughter
This old house heard many shouts
Now it trembles in the darkness
When the lightning walks about
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
Ain't gonna need this house no more
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
Ain't got time to fix the floor
Ain't got time to oil the hinges
Nor to mend no window pane
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
I'm gettin' ready to meet the saints
This old house is gettin' shaky
This old house is gettin' old
This old house lets in the rain
This old house lets the cold
On my knees are gettin' chilly
But I feel no fear or pain
'Cause I see an angel peepin'
Through the broken window pane
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
Ain't gonna need this house no more
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
Ain't got time to fix the floor
Ain't got time to oil the hinges
Nor to mend no window pane
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
I'm gettin' ready to meet the saints
This old house is gettin' shaky
This old house is gettin' old
This old house lets in the rain
This old house lets in the cold
On his knees he's gettin' chilly
But he feels no fear or pain
'Cause he sees an angel peepin'
Through a broken window pane
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
Ain't gonna need this house no more
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
Ain't got time to fix the floor
Ain't got time to oil the hinges
Nor to mend no window pain
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
I'm getting ready to meet the saints
This old house is afraid of thunder
This old house is afraid of storms
This old house just blows and trembles
When the night cames after dawn
This old house is getting fragile
This old house is in need of paint
Just like me it's starting to die
I'm getting ready to meet the saints
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
Ain't gonna need this house no more
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
Ain't got time to fix the floor
Ain't got time to oil the hinges
Nor to mend no window pain
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
I'm getting ready to meet the saints
You can add me to that list great singer indeed
Although this song was not a big hit in the US, I do very much remember seeing this video (can’t recall VH1 or MTV) at least a couple of times when I was younger.
When I was a kid about 7, this (Shakes) was the first album that was bought for me!! I now see this is high vibrational music!! I asked the universe yesterday to bring me some high vibrational music instead of that programming crap on the radio. That delivery from the higher realm is quicker than Amazon. Keep em coming universe! Thank you very much! Xx
Was my first album too at age 7 or 8. 😂❤️
When I dance around my kitchen watching him, I can’t help but think Elvis had nothing on Shakey! Haha. I’ll get shot if me mother hears me say that! Haha.
Still, great stuff my grandson is jumping up and down oh yeah this old grandpa's house!
Never really knew the lyrics ....i always thought it went " we ain't gonna need this house no longer Judy, get ready to move the sink"
Thanks to whoever posted the real lyrics😊
:D
Love it Rico.xxxxxxxz
What a hit! Now in glorious video and audio quality! Thank you for the music, Shaky!
I need this at 6.30 when I need to wake up ! They don’t make them as good anymore! 😁❤️🇬🇧
