High On A Hilltop Lyrics


Billy Joe Royal High On A Hilltop

[Verse 1]
Away from the noise and up above the mad rushin' crowd
There's a place where a little guy can stand mighty tall and proud
And late, late, late in the evenin'
When there's nobody else around
I can be found lookin' down on the town
High on a hilltop

[Verse 2]
There's a half million people all scramblin' 'round down there below
Just a face in the crowd there I was just an hour ago
But late, late, late in the evenin'
When the world's got the best of me
And I want to be free that's where I'll be
High on a hill

[Chorus]
High on a hilltop
High on a hilltop
High on a hilltop

[Verse 3]
There's a certain little girl who's waiting up there for me
Where we meet every day in the shade of a tall oak tree
And late, late, late in the evenin'
Let the rest of the world go by
And I won't cry, I'm close to the sky
High on a hill
[Outro]
High on a hilltop
Come go with me, baby
High on a hilltop
I'm waitin' for you, baby
Whoa, my
So close, so close to the sky
High on a hilltop, yeah
Come on, come on go with me, now
