NoBut you have heard of themI hear your nameRinging up and down the lineI’m saying it plainThese ties are strong enough to bindI been in a brawlNow I’m feeling the wallI’m going away babyI won’t be back ’til fallHigh on the hillYou can carry all my thoughts with youYou’ve numbed my willThis love could tear me in twoI wanna be with you in paradiseAnd it seems so unfairI can’t go back to paradise no moreI killed a man back thereYou think I’m over the hillYou think I’m past my primeLet me see what you gotWe can have a whoppin’ good time  Follow us on Instagram @songsofbob,If you would like to support hosting my podcasts, please check out my Patreon where for $5 I will give you a shout out on the podcast of your choice.
