Up on the hill / People never stare
They just don’t care
Chinese music under banyan trees
Here at the dude ranch above the sea
Aja / When all my dime dancin’ is through
I run to you

Up on the hill / They’ve got time to burn
There’s no return
Double helix in the sky tonight
Throw out the hardware / Let’s do it right
Aja
When all my dime dancin’ is through
I run to you

Up on the hill / They think I’m okay
Or so they say
Chinese music always sets me free
Angular banjoes / Sound good to me
Aja
When all my dime dancin’ is through
I run to you
