Mansion On the Hill (Live)

There's a place out on the edge of town, sir

Risin' above the factories and the fields

Ever since I was a child, I can remember

The mansion on the hill

In the day you could see the children playing

On the road that leads to the gates of hardened steel

Steel gates that completely surround

The mansion on the hill

At night, my daddy'd take me and we'd ride

Through the streets of a town so silent and still

Park on a back road along the highway side

Look up at the mansion on the hill

In the summer, all the lights would shine

There'd be music playing, people laughing all the time

Me and my sister, we'd hide out in the tall corn fields

Sit and listen to the mansion on the hill

Tonight, down here in Linden town

I watched the cars rushing by, home from the mill

There's a beautiful full moon rising

Above the mansion on the hill
