Hazel`s House Lyrics

Hazel`s House lyrics

There’s a two-lane county road in northern Jersey 

Winding up a hill beside a lake 

Just before the road winds to an end 

Is Hazel’s house 



Long white picket fence around the front yard 

A wagon wheel someone made into a gate 

Flagstone steps will lead you to the front door 

Of Hazel’s house 



And Hazel will will have seen you from the window 

She’s waiting for you as you climb the steps 

She says, “Thank God, we were starting to get worried. 

Come on in.” 



It’s New Year’s and the place is overflowing 

Cousins, aunts and uncles gather round 

“How long has it been? It’s good to see you. 

How you’ve grown.” 



And the uncles all have one eye on the Rose Bowl 

One by one they slink back to the den 

Everybody else heads for the kitchen 

You go with them 



She always has the crumbcake at the ready 

Today is no exception - there it is 

The order of the universe intact 

At Hazel’s house 



And no one seems to know that this is heaven 

They say we only know it by and by 

That someday all will be revealed 

Well, here it is: 



There’s a two-lane county road in northern Jersey 

Winding up a hill beside a lake 

Just before the road winds to an end 

Hazel’s house 

Go on in
