House of Gold Lyrics

She asked me, "Son, when I grow old
Will you buy me a house of gold?
And when your father turns to stone
Will you take care of me?"

She asked me, "Son, when I grow old
Will you buy me a house of gold?
And when your father turns to stone
Will you take care of me?"

I will make you queen of everything you see
I'll put you on the map
I'll cure you of disease

Let's say we up and left this town
And turned our future upside down
We'll make pretend that you and me
Lived ever after happily

She asked me, "Son, when I grow old
Will you buy me a house of gold?
And when your father turns to stone
Will you take care of me?"

Oh, and since we know that dreams are dead
And life turns plans up on their head
I will plan to be a bum
So I just might become someone

She asked me, "Son, when I grow old
Will you buy me a house of gold?
And when your father turns to stone
Will you take care of me?"

What is the Meaning of House of Gold?

Imagine a heartfelt promise between a mother and her son. This song explores themes of love, responsibility, and the unpredictability of life. The mother asks her son to take care of her when she grows old and to buy her a "house of gold," symbolizing security and comfort. The son's response is both tender and realistic—he vows to make her queen and cure all diseases, but also acknowledges that life's plans often go awry. Despite knowing that dreams can die and life can be uncertain, he still commits to caring for her, even if it means living modestly. It's a touching reminder of the promises we make to our loved ones and the unpredictable journey of fulfilling them.
