High on a Hilltop

High on a hilltop overlooking a city

I can see the bright lights as they gleam

And somewhere you're dancing in some dingy bar room

And the lure of the gay life takes the place of our dream

I can vision a rounder with a life so smooth

And a promise of riches for you

But you see not the danger cause you're silly with booze

And high on a hilltop I see a devil win you
