She walked up to the doorway   Of a mansion on the hill   Was a sign for sale by owner   Taped up on the windowsill   The man said let me tell you   A little about this place   And as he spke she noticed   A tear roll down his ace      It's a big ol' empty house   Where there used to be a home   There's a big ol' broken heart   That's been living there alone   If you fill it up with love   Oh, that's what it's all about   If you don't, you'll wind up livin'   In a big ol' empty house      She pulled a blank check   Took a pen and signed her name   She said both our situations   Seems like they're one and the same   She said all this money   Is just what I settled for   But what I really wanted   I guess we coud not afford      It's a big ol' empty house   Where there used to be a home   There's a big ol' broken heart   That's been living there alone   If you fill it up with love   Oh, that's what it's all about   If you don't, you'll wind up livin'   In a big ol' empty house   If you don't, you'll wind up livin'   In a big ol' empty house
