High On A Hilltop
Composer(s): Joe South
Performer(s): Joe South



Away from the noise and up above the mad rushing crowd
There's a place where a little guy can stand mighty tall and proud
And sometimes late, late, late in the evening
When there's nobody else around
I can be found, looking down on the town
High on a Hilltop
There's a half million people all scramblin round down there below
Just a face in the crowd, there I was just an hour ago
But now late, late, late, in the evening
When the world's got the best of me
Oh and I gotta be free, that's where I'll be
High on a Hill top, high on a hilltop baby
High on a hilltop, high on a hilltop, oh yeah
I can find piece of mind in the shade of a big oak tree
And when it comes my time that's where God's gonna look for me
And everyday late, late, late in the evening
When the rest of the world goes by
And I won't cry, up next to the sky
High on a hill top, high on a hilltop baby
Why don't you come along
That's where we belong, yeah, way up high
You can take my hand, take your piece of land, yeah
High on a hill top, drop what you're doin
Meet Me Up There, oh where the air is rare
You can see everything, high on a hilltop
Meet me High on a hilltop
