Composers * Jerome Kern, Oscar Hammerstein Genre * Jazz Producer * David Wall Hit Trax * www.MIDI.COM.AU ===============================
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 spot of land, And live there with you
Someday we'll build a home on a hilltop high You and I, shiny and new 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 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 our kids grow up and leave us We 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
