cabin on the hill

Skeeter Davis

There's a happy childhood home in my mem'ry I can see
Standing out upon the hill neath the shadow of the tree
If I only had my way if I'd give my heart a thrill
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill
Oh I want to wander back to the cabin on the hill
Neath the shadow of the tree I would like to linger still
Just to be with those I love join my heart with all the fill
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill

But the saddest of it all I can never more return
To that happy childhood home matters not how much I yearn
If I'd only had my way if I'd give my heart a thrill
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill
Oh I want to wander back...
Oh I want to wander back...
