Up On the Hill Where They Do the Boogie John Hartford

solo: Intro Mandolin solo first half of verse add guitar and bass second half

DDown in the city
It’s a pity what’s there,
All the kids in the gutter,
ARunnin’ real Dbare.
DHow much money,
Do I have to get,
To get me set,
Where the Ajet set Dgets?

GRight up on the hill
DWhere they do the boogie
ADo- Do
DDo -do the boogie.
GI wonder what they’re doin’
DWhen they do-do the boogie
AAnd I wonder What I'm doin’ Dhere

GDo doodle oodle
G#Do do doodle do
ADo do doodle do
A#Do do doodle do
BDo do doodle do
CDo do doodle do
DDodo da do dooo

DRats in the alley,
And a roach the floor,
Business man a’huntin’
for a Atwo-bit Dwhore.
DI thought I heard
A housewife say,
“Goin’ up on the hill
For the A"PTDA"

CHORUS

BRIDGE

DSome Folks say
that a hippie won't steal,
but I caught three
in Amy corn Dfield
DOne had a flag
and the other had a bomb
and the third o boy
is Agetting on Dhome

CHORUS

BRIDGE

DWell All I know about
Is what I read
Or see comin’ at me
On a ATV Dscreen.
DEvery time they boogie
Well it gives me a thrill
They always seem to do it
Way Aup on the Dhill.
