"Come On Up To The House" by Tom Waits from the album 'Mule Variations'
Lyrics
Well the moon is broken
And the sky is cracked
Come on up to the house
The only things that you can see
Is all that you lack
Come on up to the house
All your cryin don't do no good
Come on up to the house
Come down off the cross
We can use the wood
Come on up to the house
Come on up to the house
Come on up to the house
The world is not my home
I'm just a passin thru
Come on up to the house
There's no light in the tunnel
No irons in the fire
Come on up to the house
And your singin lead soprano
In a junkman's choir
You gotta come on up to the house
Does life seem nasty, brutish and short
Come on up to the house
The seas are stormy
And you can't find no port
Come on up to the house
(Chorus)
There's nothin in the world
That you can do
You gotta come on up to the house
And you been whipped by the forces
That are inside you
Come on up to the house
Well you're high on top
Of your mountain of woe
Come on up to the house
Well you know you should surrender
But you can't let go
You gotta come on up to the house

I love that line, "Come on down off that cross, we can use the wood..."
does that line indicate that he doesnt believe in God? Could you explain it to me please
@@jesuspaiditall6936 Or it means stop being a martyr and do something else.
@@jesuspaiditall6936 Some people do cling too much to their believes and traditions to the extent where they arent thinking realistically anymore
Truly cross itself is w/o power but the blood He shed willingly in unimaginable agony& Those better 3 words:' It Is Finished.
Jesus was physically& mentally tortured. Come on up to the house is kinda metaphoric for fellowship. ' When all u can. I notice he uses more than a few biblical verses. Ex.Cold Water:" I sleep w the snakes& the bugs& I'm reading t Bible by 40 watt bulb". "Lord, I Been changed" "Bad as Me" all have sinned& fallen short of His glory. God ain't snooty,playing games t keep His blessings for His children& mankind.I just started getting into@ yr ago..a genius.
Play this song at my funeral.
I just found this song, and I'm so happy I did. We lost my dad in January 2021. For some reason, this song helps me handle the loss I feel.
Phyllis, I am here for the EXACT same reason. We lost my dad two months ago and this song has really helped me get through this incredibly difficult period. I hope you are doing ok now.
@@kyleknecht9294I hope you're doing ok as well.
I just lost my Dad 3 months ago... I heard this song right after locking the door when the funeral home left with his body. It changed me forever.
Makes my heart swell up with some kind of melancholy happiness I don’t fully understand...
^ NAILED IT!!!! ^
So exactly how I feel thank you
A mutual feeling, that is. 🍻
If you come to my funeral you will hear this song!!!!
Melancholy happiness is the phrase I been looking for to describe tom for years. Thank you
If Tom Waits were my preacher, I'd go to church.
"Come down off the cross. We can use the wood." LOL
ikr, he makes your aching heart laugh with joy through your tears
Yeah, so fabulous line!
That's to those w grace out of place. We can use the wood. It is finished.
@@alexwebster6809 durn LARPers, ammiwright?
One of the best lyrics he ever wrote. Or maybe Kathleen. You never know with Swordfishbones, and afterwards.
Heard this song at the end
Of the Sly Doc ,and it just pulled me in. I am going to play it at church.
Gosh , im reading the comments and they're making me cry . I was already holding back tears listening to the song , , this amazing piece of work done by Tom Waits , it , like many of his songs touches a part of your heart and soul . Thank you Tom . This music is part the soundtrack of my life .
Goddamn masterpiece, like most of Toms songs
I am late to appreciate Tom Waits. I am his biggest fan now. "the world is not my home, I'm just a passing through"
"Well, you're high on top of your mountain of woe
Gotta come on up to the house
Well you know you should surrender
But you can't let it go
You gotta come on up to the house...."
That hits painfully close to home right now. 😭 God Save Tom Waits!
One of the most beautiful lines ever written
@BuzzcutGtr -- Colossal.....BRAVO from Acapulco!
Thank you Tom, during this time of Corona Virus quarantine when I need to process fear of the unknown, your voice and lyrics help me cleanse my spirit.l
I think many of us were doing the same when that first quarantine hit. So much solace to be found in Tom's songs.
looked at all the comments, the new new gospel
saint tom
This song gave me a lot of comfort when I was really depressed.
Possibly my favourite Waits song..
Yeah
This song, along with The Mary Ellen Carter by Stan Rogers have at various times saved my life
One of his best.
Just the best - Tom goes to places which are just magical and so poignant; cheers Tom, a real artist 👌🏻
Saved my life.
I was about as low as I could go. I heard this song and it changed my life. Thanks Tom.
@@edwardjtruskyjr1921 Glad to hear you are ok!
You hear Tom Waits songs more often than you do from your family. True or false?
Masterpiece 🖤🙏🐺 Amen
Puddles brought me here and i'm glad i came on up to the house
Puddles?
Blessed to find this song
This my new fave 🙌
I felt the same way when I first heard it 👍
Well, the moon is broken and the sky is cracked
Come on up to the house
The only things that you can see is all that you lack
Come on up to the house
All your crying don't do no good
Come on up to the house
Come down off the cross, we can use the wood
You gotta come on up to the house
Come on up to the house
Come on up to the house
The world is not my home
I'm just a-passing through
You got to come on up to the house
There's no light in the tunnel, no irons in the fire
Come on up to the house
And you're singing lead soprano in a junkman's choir
You got to come on up to the house
Does life seem nasty, brutish and short
Come on up to the house
The seas are stormy and you can't find no port
Got to come on up to the house, yeah
You gotta come on up to the house
Come on up to the house
The world is not my home I'm just a-passing through
You got to come on up to the house, yeah
You gotta come on up to the house
Come on up to the house
The world is not my home
I'm just a-passing through
You got to come on up to the house
There's nothing in the world that you can do
You gotta come on up to the house
And you been whipped by the forces that are inside you
Gotta come on up to the house
Well, you're high on top of your mountain of woe
Gotta come on up to the house
Well, you know you should surrender, but you can't let it go
You gotta come on up to the house, yeah
Gotta come on up to the house
Gotta come on up to the house
The world is not my home I'm just a-passing through
You gotta come on up to the house
Gotta come on up to the house
You gotta come on up to the house
Yeah yeah yeah

Nasty, brutish, and short.
Wow !
Need this played at my funeral pyre.
Played at my cousin’s funeral. Beautiful
This is such a great song!
The best ending to a great song, in my world. 🎵🌹🍻
The first time I ever heard Tom Waits, it was this song, and I had no idea what to expect. I almost laughed at it.
This is one of my all time favorite songs, if not in my top 5.
Spill the beans what is your top 10
This should be the national anthem.
...for some odd reason I get the lyrics "the world is not my oyster, I'm just passing through."
And so thank you fairie god~farther Tom waits.
Always absolutely appreciated...,.
Thank you Tom.
For everything.
The best oh yeah in music history
The floor boards are dancin !!!
This man knows what he is talking about. God Bless Tom Waits. ❤
My ex loved Tom Waits sometimes I listen to his music.
What a treasure.
Thanks for this
просто восхитительно. Пришел сюда, чтобы написать Happy Birthda, dear Tom!
Love the genius of behind the mule country music fans take it literally rockers always understand the metaphor
"you're singing lead soprano in a junk man's choir..."
Pure Masterpiece 💙
Thank you
Greatness
beautiful
Yeah doo beautiful
We're not in the 18th Century. Tom Waits can sign autographs.... :))
Sly brought me here ❤
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Baja de la Cruz, podemos usar la madera
Sly brought me here
That was a great ending
The movie “Change in the Air” brought me here 👍♥️
The understanding that humanity's efforts are futile and that art, in general, is silly anyway is the unifying factor of all expression on Earth that levels and adds as the litmus test to all art. The 'film grain' makes the picture look better in all cinema before digital.
Mark Sanchez brought me here, thank you Jon Bois
Am I the only one who hears similiarities with "Let the water wash away your sin" from Farcry 5?! :D
TH-cam brought me here.
Anyone here from the end of that one orange is the new black episode😂😂
