Bob & Sarah Amos - THE HILLS THAT I CALL HOME

THE HILLS THAT I CALL HOME
words and music by Bob Amos, Southern Melody Music, BMI

I was born upon a hillside, where the pines sing in the wind
Where my father lived before me, and his father before him
We believe in simple living, it’s a life we choose to know
All we need here is our freedom, and a place to call our own

In the land of Ethan Allen, where the sugar maples grow
where the wild grass fills the meadows, and the rocky rivers flow
lie the hills that I call home

I have traveled ‘cross the country, and there is much that I have learned
Still I felt no peace inside me, til the day that I returned
For there’s two things you can count on in this world that we all face
Every season has an ending, and every person has a place

In the land of Ethan Allen, where the sugar maples grow
where the wild grass fills the meadows, and the rocky rivers flow
lie the hills that I call home
