Jim Ed Brown and the Browns "Mansion Over the Hilltop" |
(Words & music by Ira Stamphill) I'm satisfied with just a cottage below, A little silver and a little gold; But in that city where the ransome will shine, I want a gold one that's silver-lined. Chorus: I've got a mansion just over the hilltop, In that bright land where we'll never grow old; And someday yonder we will never more wonder, But walk on streets that are pure as gold. --- Instrumental --- Don't think me poor or deserted or lonely I'm not discouraged, I'm heaven bound; I'm but a pilgrim in search of a city, I want a mansion, a harp and a crown. Chorus: I've got a mansion just over the hilltop, In that bright land where we'll never grow old; And someday yonder we will never more wonder, But walk on streets that are pure as gold. Chorus: We've got a mansion just over the hilltop, In that bright land where we'll never grow old; And someday yonder we will never more wonder, But walk on streets that are pure as gold...
