View from a Hilltop

View from a hilltop

Shady canvas sky

High above the countryside

Far from the working day

Oh, far from the working day

See the little people going off to work in the rain

They do the sharework and we see them coming back again

And train keeps rolling by

The trains keep rolling by

Like trains keep rolling by

Keep rolling

Trains keep rolling by

Keeps rolling on

View from a hilltop

Sleepy mining town

Shade of a blackbird

High above the ground

And the sleepy mining town

Is a mystery to the city man

Like a little stone inside your hand

Inside your hand

See the little people going off to work in the rain

Oh, they do the sharework and we see them coming back again

See the little people run by

Trains keep rolling by

Keep rolling

The trains keep rolling by

Keep rolling

Trains keep rolling by
