• New Home

I’m buildin’ a new home ‘cross the county line (2x)
Up on a high hill where the view’s so fine

Down in the lowlands water taste like turpentine (2x)
I’m goin’ up the country where it taste liked cherry wine

I made a piece of money, but I won’t say how (2x)
Bought my own forty acres –
My own mule an’ breakin’ plough
Bought my own forty acres –
Don’t have to scrape an’ bow

I’m buildin’ a new home ….

I heard a voice talkin’ like a radio in my head (2x)
I’m about to tell you just what it said:

I’ll put your feet on solid ground, by an’ by (2x)
When the river gets to risin’ you’ll be high an’ dry

I’m buildin’ a new home ‘cross the county line (2x)
Up on a high hill where the view’s so fine
Up on a high hill – leave this ol’ shack behind.
