No Vacancy Lyrics

All along the road of life I roam,

Lookin' for a place to call my own,

Not a fancy mansion or a bungalow for me.

But ev'rywhere I go I seem to find

Hangin' on the door that same old sign,

And my heart beats slower when I read on the door, "No

Vacancy."



CHORUS:

No Vacancy, No Vacancy --

All along the line it's the same old sign waitin' for

me.

No Vacancy, No Vacancy --

And my heart beats slower when I read on the door,

"No Vacancy."



Not so long ago when the bullets screamed,

Many was the happy dream I dreamed

Of a little nest where I could rest when the world was

free.

Now the mighty war over there is won,

Troubles and trials have just begun

Facing that terrible enemy sign, "No Vacancy."



[CHORUS]



Brother, if you live a life of ease,

Better take a moment on your knees;

Thank the Lord above for all His love, then think of

me,

Livin' in a world of greed and hate,

Hoping ev'ry day the hand of fate

Will remove that sign that's a-hangin' on the door, "No

Vacancy."



[CHORUS]
