High on a hilltop overlooking the city 
I can see the bright lights as they gleam 
And somewhere you're dancing in some dingy barroom 
And the lure of the gayness takes the place of our dream 

High on a hilltop my heart cries, oh Lord 
Forgive her she knows not the way 
And give me the power to believe and someday 
High on a hilltop together we'll pray 

I canvision around her with her lying so smooth 
With a promise of riches for you 
But you see not the danger cause you're silly with booze 
And from high on a hilltop I see the devil in you 

High on a hilltop my heart cries, oh Lord 
Forgive her she knows not the way 
And give me the power to believe and someday 
High on a hilltop together we'll pray
