Working night and day
I try to get ahead
but I don't get ahead
this way
Working night and day
the railroad and the fence
Watch the train go roll
around the bend
Over the hillside
Over the moment
Over the hills and waiting
Working night and day
I try to get ahead
Working night and day
don't make no sense
Walk me into town
The ferry will be there
to carry us away
into the air
Over the hillside
Over white water
Over the hills and falling
The stars in your eyes
knowing what's right
The stars in your eyes
don't explain
Over the hillside
Over the hillside
Over the hills and waiting
Over the hillside
Over the hillside
Over the hills
and home we'll go
Tomorrow I will be there
Tomorrow I will be there
Tomorrow I will be there
Oh you wait and see
I can't go on
and I can't go back
I don't feel so matter-of-fact
I tried and tried
to make good sense
What's the good
to try it all again
