Town on the Hill Lyrics
[Intro]
Thought I didn't know you
You thought I didn't know you
You thought I didn't know your worth
You thought I didn't know your worth
You thought I didn't know your worth
You thought I didn't know your worth
We never take you outside
You never turn a crazy thing down
We never take you outside
You never turn a crazy thing down
You thought I didn't know you
You thought I didn't know your worth
You thought I didn't know your worth
You thought I didn't know your worth
You thought I didn't know your worth
You thought I didn't know your worth
I didn't owe you anything, gave you
[Verse 1: Chance the Rapper]
They built a town on top of a hill
Yellow in hue, standing in plain sight
This caught my eye and spoke to my soul
"What a good deed," I said
[Chorus: Chance the Rapper]
Thank you, Father, Father
Thank you, Father, Father
[Verse 2: Chance the Rapper]
They built a town on top of a hill
It was yellow in hue, 'cause it was bursting with light
And that's when I caught a view, what a magnificent sight
'Cause it reminds me of You, I guess
[Chorus: Chance the Rapper]
Thank you, Father, Father
You really love me
You really love me
Father, Father (Down)
You really love me
[Outro]
Down
We never take you outside
You never turn a crazy thing down
We never take you outside
You never turn a crazy thing down
You thought I didn't know you
You thought I didn't know your worth
You thought I didn't know your worth
You thought I didn't know your worth
You thought I didn't know your worth
You thought I didn't know your worth
I didn't owe you anything, gave you
