Little Brown Buiding

• G

 Don't let'em tear that little brown building down 
by Bobby Bare 
(G) The passed an ordinance in the town 
(G) Thay said we'd have to tear it down 
(G) That little old shack out back so dear to (D) me 
(D) Though the health department (G) said it's day is (C) over and dead 
(G) It will stand forever in my ((D)) memory 
 
(G) Don't let'em tear that little brown building (D)down 
(D) Don't let'em tear that (G) precious building (D) down 
(G) Don't let'em tear that dear old building (D) down 
For there's not (C) another like it in the country or the (G) town 
 
It was not so long ago. that I went (C) trippin through the snow 
(G) Out to that house behind my old hound (D) dog 
Where I would sit me down to rest like a (C) snowbird on his nest 
And I'd (G) read the (G) sears and (D) Robot (G) catalogue 
 
Oh I would sing a happy tune pepin through the quarter moon 
As my daddy's kin had done so much before 
It was in that quite spot daily chores could be forgot 
And it gave the same relief to rich or poor 
 
It wasn't fancy built at all it had newspapers on the wall 
It was air conditioned in the winter time 
It was just a humble hut but it's door was never shut 
And a man could get inside without a dime 
 
CHORUS 
Don't let'em tear that little brown building down 
Don't let'em tear that precious building down 
Don't let'em tear that dear old building down 
For there's not another like it in the country or the town
