Take Care Of This House

Take Care Of This House
Jennifer Hudson
From the musical "1600 Pennsylvania Avenue"
(Alan Jay Lerner / Leonard Bernstein)
Take care of this house
Keep it from harm
If bandits break in, sound the alarm
Care for this house
Shine it by hand
And keep it so clean
The glow can be seen all over the land.

Be careful at night,
Check all the doors,
If someone makes off with a dream
That dream will be yours.
Take care of this house
Be always on call
For this house is the home of us all.
(Take care of this house

Care for this house

And keep it so clean
The glow can be seen all over the land.
Be careful at night,
Check all the doors,
If someone makes off with a dream
That dream will be yours.
Take care of this house
Be always on call
Care for this house
It's the home of us all.
Take care of this house
Take care of this house
Take care of this house
