Mansion On the Hill

(Bruce Springsteen)There's a place out on the edge of town sir

Risin' above the factories and fields

Now ever since I was a child I can remember

That mansion on the hill

In the day you can see the children playing

On a road that leads to those gates of hardened steel

Steel gates that completely surround sir

That mansion on the hillAt night my daddy'd take me and we'd ride

Through the streets of a town so silent and still

Park on a back road along the highway signs sir

Look up at the mansion on the hillIn the summer all the lights would shine

There'd be music playin' people laughin' all the time

Me and my brother we'd lie down in the tall cornfields sir

Sit and listen to the mansion on the hill
