Higher Hill Lyrics by Brendan McGlynn

0

[Verse 1]
I took the road past the courthouse
As the sun rose on my chest
I'm gonna take that thing somewhere
In the morning as you asked
[Chorus 1]
So will someone tell my mother that I drowned in that well?
Tell my father to take care of her
And to always treat her well
I'm leaving for that higher hill
[Verse 2]
I met a girl in New York city
She said to call her Anne-Marie
When out one day she saw me walking
Asked if she'd spend some time with me
[Chorus 2]
So will someone please tell her that I drowned in that well?
Well, there never was another
And although she knew me well
I'm leaving for that higher hill
[Verse 3]
No, my feet never get tired walking all these foreign roads
I climbed the mountain, swam that ocean, I been all over so I'm told
Every day just a new town, every night under the stars
I see the faces of the people, but I don't care who they are
[Chorus 3]
Just leaving for that higher hill
