The Folks Who Live On The Hill

Many men with loved in
try Florida to go
Others’ places small against being simpleless souls
I am the little brand
All I want to do
is to find a plat of land
and live there with you
Someday we'll build a home on a hilltop high
Shiny and new cottage that two can fill
And we'll be pleased to be called
“The folks who live on the hill”
Yes, someday we may be adding a thing or two
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 kind of view that seems to want to be seen
And when the kids grow up and leave us
We'll sit and look at that same old view
Just we two
Darby and Joan 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”
