The Band of Brothers: MP3s/Lyrics
Living Up On The Hill (lyrics)
(The Band of Brothers)
Michael Scott Smith
Note from Michael: This was the first song that I brought to The Band of Brothers. I wrote it at home on a beautiful sunny day, and it is a simple expression of my love for my wife and the home we have made.
Take the cup - Fill it up - Careful - Don’t let it spill.
Take all that life gives you - All God gives you.
Livin’ up on the hill.
Now that gal of mine - She’s got it made.
She’s as pretty as the pines - In the summer shade.
The bees are buzzin’ - Through the locust trees.
The corn is swayin’ in the breeze.
Take the cup - Fill it up - Careful - Don’t let it spill.
Take all that life gives you - All God gives you.
Livin’ up on the hill.
It’s a country mile - To the nearest town.
And I’ve got a smile that just won’t quit!
I can can see forever - Through the open skies.
I swear - I can’t get enough of it.
Take the cup - Fill it up - Careful - Don’t let it spill.
Take all that life gives you - All God gives you.
Livin’ up on the hill.
