Well I forded the river
I paid all my bills
Gave a gift to the giver
Now I'm headed for the hills
I paid back my borrows
Likewise all my dues
I'll be gone tomorrow
Nothing here I can use
Headed for the hills
Headed for the hills
I can't hear 'em calling
Headed for the hills
Once I had a a woman
Deaf and mute and blind
Only one could hear me
When I tried to speak my mind
Once I had a fiddle
Once I had a bow
There's nothing on the griddle
But I paid back all I owed
Headed for the hills
Headed for the hills
I can't hear 'em calling
Headed for the hills
I paid all my bills
Gave a gift to the giver
Now I'm headed for the hills
I paid back my borrows
Likewise all my dues
I'll be gone tomorrow
Nothing here I can use
Headed for the hills
Headed for the hills
I can't hear 'em calling
Headed for the hills
Once I had a a woman
Deaf and mute and blind
Only one could hear me
When I tried to speak my mind
Once I had a fiddle
Once I had a bow
There's nothing on the griddle
But I paid back all I owed
Headed for the hills
Headed for the hills
I can't hear 'em calling
Headed for the hills
