Many men
With lofty aims
Strive for lofty goals
Others play at
Smaller games
Being simpler souls
I...am of the latter brand
All I want to do
Is to find a plot of land
And live there
With you...
Someday,
We'll build a home
On a hill-top high
You and I...
Shiny and new
A cottage
That two can fill
And we'll be pleased
To be called
''The folks who
Live on the hill''
Yes, someday
We may be adding
A thing or two
A wing or two...
We will make changes
As any family will
But we will always
Be called
''The folks who
Live on the hill''
Our verandah will
Command a view
Of meadows green
Kind of view
That simply
Has to be seen...
And when
The kids grow up
And leave us
We'll sit there watching
The same old view
Just we two
Darby and Joan
Who used to be
Jack and Jill
The folks who
Like bein' called
What they have
Always been called...
''The folks who
Live on the hill''...
The hill...
