The Far Side Of The Hill (live) Lyrics - The Limeliters

I was born for roamin, 

Guess I always will. 

I wonder if it's greener 

On the far side of the hill. 

Look down, look down yonder, 

There's earth and green and sky. 

I'll bet we could get on down there 

In the battin' of an eye. 

And further west there's ocean. 

A miner told me so. 

And sun that shines so brightly 

That it scares up winter snow. 

Sometimes I'm feelin' lonely, 

Sometimes I'm feelin' blue, 

Sometimes I see a farmer 

Walkin' slow when day is through. 

And I know he's got a woman 

Waiting supper every day. 

And I curse this wandering fever 

Keeps calling me away. 

Yes I was born for roamin. 

Guess I always will. 

I wonder if it's greener 

On the far side of the hill.
