Mandolin Orange - House of Stone [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

It's a churchyard auction, a sight to see
Where the eyes are big, and the odds are lean
The pockets all are empty, the chances all are gone
But there's a free bet yet on a house of stone
A house of stone
Now some may sing sounds of hallelujah
And dream about a mansion of gold
But to each be true and to each be known
My dreams all are resting on a house of stone
A house of stone
Say that devil's a sly one with many kind friends
His riches are boundless, they know no end
Down in the valley, the shadow's grown
But in the light of Calvary sits a house of stone
A house of stone
