High on a hilltop overlookin` the city I watch the bright lights as they gleam
For somewhere you`re dancin` in some dingy barroom
And the lure of the gayness takes the place of our dreams
High on a hilltop my heart cries oh Lord forgive her she knows not the way
Just give me the power to believe and someday high on a hilltop together we`ll pray
[ steel ]
I canvision around her with her lyin` so smooth with a promise of riches for you
But you see not the danger for you`re silly with booze
And from high on a hilltop I see the devil in you
High on a hilltop my heart cries oh Lord...
