The song Step Inside This House is performed by Lyle Lovett in the album named Step Inside This House in the year 1998 .
That picture hangin' on the wall
Was painted by a friend
He gave it to me all down and out
When he owed me ten
It doesn't look like much I guess
But it's all that's left of him
It sure is nice from right over here
When the light's a little dim
Step inside this house girl
I'll sing for you a song
I'll tell you 'bout just where I've been
It shouldn't take too long
I'll show you all the things that I own
My treasures you might say
It couldn't be more then ten dollars worth
They brighten up my day
And this book of poems was given to me
By a girl I used to know
I guess I read it front to back
Fifty times or so
It's all about the good life
And stayin' at ease with the world
It's funny how I love that book
And I never loved that girl
Step inside this house girl
I'll sing for you a song
I'll tell you 'bout just where I've been
It shouldn't take too long
I'll show you all the things that I own
My treasures you might say
It couldn't be more then ten dollars worth
That brighten up my day
And you hold this piece of gla*s
Up to the light that's shining through the door
It's a prism gla*s I found it on the road
And can't you see that tiny rainbow?
It's not really a prism I guess
It just kinda broke a funny way
I was on my way through Houston
And I was headed for L.A.
And step inside this house girl
I'll sing for you a song
I'll tell you 'bout just where I've been
It shouldn't take too long
I'll show you all the things that I own
My treasures you might say
It couldn't be more then ten dollars worth
That brighten up my day
And this guitar was given me
By an old man Thomas Gray
It's not too much to look at
But I play it everyday
It's been across this country
Four or five times I guess
Between me and old man Tom
It never got much rest
Step inside this house girl
I'll sing for you a song
I'll tell you 'bout just where I've been
It shouldn't take too long
I'll show you all the things that I own
My treasures you might say
It couldn't be more then ten dollars worth
That brighten up my day
And that's just about all that I own
All I care to I guess
Except this pair of boots maybe
And that funny yellow vest
And that leather jacket and that leather bag
And hat hangin' on the wall
Just so it's not too much to carry be
Could I see you again next fall?
Step inside this house girl
I'll sing for you a song
I'll tell you 'bout just where I've been
It shouldn't take too long
I'll show you all the things that I own
My treasures you might say
It couldn't be more then ten dollars worth
That brighten up my day
