The Folks Who Live On The Hill (Christine Solo)

Many men with lofty aim, strive for lofty goals
Others play in smaller games, being simpler souls
I am of the ladder brand, all I wanna do
Is to find a spot of land
And live there, with youuuuu

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 conned
The folks will live on, the hill

Someday
We will be adding a thing or two
A wing or two
We will make changes, as any family will
And we'll be pleased to be conned
The folks will live on, the hill

Our veranda will command a viеw
Of meadows green
The sort of view that seems to want to bе seen
And when the kids grow up and leave us
We'll sit and look at the same old view
Just we two

Darby and Joan who used to be Jack, and Jill
And we would like to be conned
Lord, we have always been conned
The folks who live on
The, hill
