| There’s a certain hill outside of town called Sam Hill
|
| And a certain guy used to go there every day
|
| They said a certain girl lived up in Sam Hill
|
| Aw, a pretty girl, not hep to city ways
|
| This certain guy would come down the hill a smiling
|
| Headed back to town at the crack of dawn
|
| And he had them all a wonderin' what he was doing
|

|
| Cause he never took a shovel or a pick
|
| He only took a little box of candy
|
| And disappeared in Sam Hill mighty quick
|
