text: Theres a place out on the edge of town, sir
  Rising above the factories and the fields
  Now ever since I was a child I can remember
  That mansion on the hill
  In the day you can see the children playing
  On the road that leads to those gates of hardened steel
  Steel gates that completely surround, sir
  The mansion on the hill
  At night my daddyd take me and wed ride
  Through the streets of a town so silent and still
  Park on a back road along the highway side
  Look up at that mansion on the hill
  In the summer all the lights would shine
  Thered be music playing people laughing all the time
  Me and my sister, wed hide out in the tall corn fields
  Sit and listen to the mansion on the hill
  Tonight down here in Linden Town
  I watch the cars rushing by far from the mill
  Theres a beautiful full moon rising
  Above the mansion on the hill
