| This is the house that Jack built, y’all
 | 
| Remember this house
 | 
| This was the land that he worked by hand
 | 
| It was the dream of an upright man
 | 
| There was the room that was filled with love
 | 
| It was a love that I was proud of
 | 
| This was a life of a love that he planned
 | 
| On the love, the same old love
 | 
| In the house that Jack built
 | 
| (The house that Jack built)
 | 
| Remember this house
 | 
| There was the fence that held our love (Yes it was)
 | 
| There was the gate that he walked out of
 | 
| This is the heart that is turned to stone (Yes it is)
 | 
| This was the house, but it ain’t no home
 | 
| This is the love that I once had
 | 
| In a dream that I thought was love
 | 
| In the house that Jack built
 | 
| (The house that Jack built)
 | 
| I’m gon' remember this house
 | 
| Oh, what’s the use of crying?
 | 
| You know I brought it on myself
 | 
| There’s no denying
 | 
| But it seems awful funny
 | 
| That I didn’t understand
 | 
| Was it a house of an upright man, y’all?
 | 
| Up on the hill there’s a big plan still
 | 
| In the house that Jack built
 | 
| (The house that Jack built)
 | 
| I’m gon' remember this house
 | 
| (the house that Jack built)
 | 
| Listen!
 | 
| I got the house
 | 
| I got the car
 | 
| I got the rug
 | 
| And I got the rack
 | 
| But I ain’t got Jack
 | 
| (I ain’t got Jack, Jack, Jack)
 | 
| And I want my Jack back!
 | 
| (I ain’t got Jack, Jack, Jack)
 | 
| I turned my back on Jack
 | 
| He said he wasn’t coming back
 | 
| I turned my back on Jack
 | 
| He said he wasn’t coming back
 | 
| Oh, Jack
 | 
| You oughta come on back
 | 
| (Come on, come on, come on)
 | 
| Oh, Jack
 | 
| (Come on back, Jack)
 | 
| You oughta come on back
 | 
| (Come on back, Jack)
 | 
| To the one that you built
 | 
| (Come on back, Jack)
 | 
| It’s the same one that you built
 | 
| (Come on back, Jack)
 | 
| You oughta come on back, Jack
 | 
| (Come on, come on, come on)
 | 
| Oh, come back
 | 
| I didn’t understand
 | 
| (Come on back, Jack)
 | 
| Until I lost my upright man
 | 
| (Come on back, Jack)
 | 
| Come on back, Jack
 | 
| (Come on back, Jack)
 | 
| You oughta come on home now
 | 
| (Come on back, Jack) |
