Cabin in the Hills

Cabin in the Hills - Flatt/Scruggs

There's a happy childhood home

There's a happy childhood home

In my memory I can see

In my memory I can see

Standing out upon the hill

Standing out upon the hill

'Neath the shadow of the tree

'Neath the shadow of the tree

If I only had my way

If I only had my way

It would give my heart a thrill

It would give my heart a thrill

Just to simply wander back

Just to simply wander back

To the cabin on the hill

To the cabin on the hill

Oh I want to wonder back

Oh I want to wonder back

To the cabin on the hill

To the cabin on the hill

'Neath the shadow of the tree

'Neath the shadow of the tree

I would like to linger still

I would like to linger still

Just to be with those I love

Just to be with those I love

Joy my heart would overfill

Joy my heart would overfill

And I want to wonder back

And I want to wonder back

To the cabin on the hill

To the cabin on the hill

But the saddest of it all

But the saddest of it all

I can never more return

I can never more return

To that happy childhood home

To that happy childhood home

Matters not how much I yearn

Matters not how much I yearn

If I only had my way

If I only had my way

It would give my heart a thrill

It would give my heart a thrill

Just to simply wonder back

Just to simply wonder back

To the cabin on the hill

To the cabin on the hill

Oh I want to wander back

Oh I want to wander back

To the cabin on the hill

To the cabin on the hill

'Neath the shadow of the tree

'Neath the shadow of the tree

I would like to linger still

I would like to linger still

Just to be with those I love

Just to be with those I love

Joy my heart would overfill

Joy my heart would overfill

And I want to wander back

And I want to wander back

To the cabin on the hill
