Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
- They say a man’s home is his castle
He’s like a king on a throne
It may be just a shack
Down along side the track
But everything in it’s his own
So don’t think of taking his loved one
It’s written, “Thou shalt not steal”
Don’t rob another man’s castle
No matter how lonesome you feel - Don’t rob another man’s castle
Don’t take his darling away
For as strange as it seems
When you steal a man’s dreams
You never know how much you’ll pay
So don’t rob a man of his sunshine
You’ll break his heart, don’t you see?
I robbed another man’s castle
Now someone just stole her from me
