House On The Hill

(album: Turtle Soup - 1969)

House on the hill
Peaceful and still
Only sounds of music ever filled
The air

Birds everywhere
With ribbons in their hair
I'm so glad I had the time to stop
And share

Sitting in the parlor
We talked over tea
Waiting for his wife to bring
The girls from the academy

Oh, the house on hill
Took me in that day
And I fell right away
In love with those pretty people

And the house on hill
Took me in that day
And I fell right away
In love with those pretty people

Happy and healthy
And quite a bit wealthy
But the economic structure never stood
In the way

When I had to leave
Before I wanted to go
They made me happy
I only hope they know

Oh, the house on the hill
Took me in that day
And I fell right away
In love with those pretty people

And the house on the hill
Took me in that day
And I fell right away
In love with those pretty people

And the house on the hill
Took me in that day
And I fell right away
In love with those pretty people

And the house on the hill
Took me in that day
And I fell right away
In love with those pretty people

And the house on the hill
Took me in that day
And I fell right away...
