A Cabin in the Hills

I dreamed I saw Jesus last night

Seated on a mountain in the moonlight

His hands held a key to a cabin

That cabin I'd dreamed of all my life

Money makes the rules we have to live by

A home is just a place they send the bills

God knows why we work and what we pray for

So He's building me a cabin in the hills

Who knows He might be finished in the morning

So I lie awake and take no sleeping pills

God knows I'm not happy in a mansion

So He's building me a cabin in the hills

I live my lonesome life down in a valley

With the factories, the rivers and the mills

Sometimes I can almost hear His hammer

'Cause He's building me a cabin in the hills

Someone has to keep the home fire burning

So I sweat and get the harvest in the field

Life on earth won't be the same hereafter

So He's building me a cabin in the hills

I live my lonesome life down in a valley

With the factories, the rivers and the mills

Sometimes I can almost hear His hammer

'Cause He's building me a cabin in the hills

He's building me a cabin in the hills
