The Folks Who Live On The Hill

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 me who used to be Jack and Jill

The folks who like to be called

What they have always been called

The folks who live on the hill
