Well, Hank, our friends must have known
That you were gonna be here today
Because they just almost sent in a carload of mail
Most of 'em wanted to hear "The Lovesick Blues"
You sung that, and now here's a great big stack of mail
For another great favorite
You know which one I mean?
It couldn't be "Mansion on the Hill" could it?
That's it, Hank, will you sing it today
Well, let's just do that right now
ย
Tonight down here in the valley
I'm lonesome, and oh how I feel
As I sit here alone in my cabin
I can see your mansion on the hill
Do you recall when we parted?
The story to me you revealed
You said you could live without love, dear
In your loveless mansion on the hill
ย
The lights shine bright from your window
The trees stand so silent and still
I know you're alone with your pride, dear
In your loveless mansion on the hill
I've waited all of these years, love
To give you a heart true and real
'Cause I know you're living in sorrow
In your loveless mansion on the hill
Yes sir, Hank, that's as good as always
