About The House That Jack Built
"The House That Jack Built" is a song written by Bobby Lance and Fran Robbins, based on the British nursery rhyme and cumulative tale "This Is the House That Jack Built". It was first recorded by Thelma Jones and released on the Barry label in early 1968, but her version only peaked at #132 on the pop chart in the United States. Later that year, Aretha Franklin recorded the song, reaching No. 2 on the U.S. R&B chart and No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.
