Subject: Lyr Add: CABIN ON THE HILL (Bolivar Lee Shook) From: Jabes Date: 03 Dec 00 - 01:56 AM Hi! There's a great song on Ginny Hawker and Kay Justice's album "Come All You Tenderhearted." The song is called "Cabin on the Hill," and it's by B. L. Shook. There are a couple of words I can't understand. Can anyone fill in the blanks? (See below.) Many thanks!
CABIN ON THE HILL
There's a happy childhood home in my memory I can see
Chorus:
I remember well the day it is fresh in memory Chorus
But the saddest of it all, I could never more return Chorus |

CABIN ON THE HILL
There's a happy childhood home in my memory I can see,
CHORUS: Ohm I want to wander back to my cabin on the hill.
I remember well the day; it is fresh in memory:
But the saddest of it all, I could never more return |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Cabin on the Hill (Bolivar Lee Shook) From: GUEST Date: 09 Oct 19 - 12:17 PM Bolivar L. Shook was my Grandmother's cousin. we visited him in about 1960. I recall the older folks talking about Flatt & Scruggs recording 'Cabin on the hill'. F & S finally credited that the song was written by Bolivar. I don't think he ever received any royalties, which he deserved and could have used, especially considering his health issues. |
