- Verse:
I stop worryin' when I start hurryin away,
- From all my daily cares,
and lonesomeness.
Twilites hour finds me in a bower, where the skies are blue.
- And here's a birds's eye
view, of happiness:
-
- Chorus:
- High up on a hill-top, Beautiful
to see,
- There's a cozy cottage,
Standing peacefully.
- Skies are never cloudy,
When the day is done,
- Stars are twinkling "Howdy",
To a setting sun.
- Just picture little Jack
and Jill, Running down the hill to meet me.
- And there's my little la-
dy fair, Waiting for her share of joy.
- Hand in hand together, Happy
as can be,
- High up on a hill-top; That's
heaven to me.
