George Jones
Mansion Over the Hilltop
I'm satisfied with just a cottage below
A little silver and a little gold
But in that city where the ransomed will shine
I want a gold one that's silver lined
I've got a mansion just over the hilltop
In that bright land where we'll never grow old
And some day yonder, we'll never more wander
But walk on streets that are purest gold
Don't think me poor or deserted or lonely
I'm not discouraged, I'm heaven bound
And I'm just a pilgrim in search of a city
And I want a mansion, a harp and a crown
I've got a mansion just over the hilltop
In that bright land where we'll never grow old
And some day yonder, we'll never more wander
But walk on streets that are purest gold
I've got a mansion just over the hilltop
In that bright land where we'll never grow old
And some day yonder, we'll never more wander
But walk on streets that are purest gold
But walk on streets that are purest gold
