The Folks Who Live on the Hill |
| 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 hilltop 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 |
| 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 veranda will command |
| A view of meadows green |
| The sort of view that |
| Seems to want to be 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 |
| The folks like to be called |
| What they have always been called |
| The folks who live on the hill |
