Hmm . . . here are the "definitive" :) lyrics: a Pat-corrected version of what's found on the web site, http://www.song-teksten.com/song_lyrics/nitty_gritty_dirt_band/partners_brothers_and_friends/other_side_of_the_hill/ Actually, this is the "definitive" version of the song as sung by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band on a recording Pat heard (the version Peace found is slightly different): Other Side of the Hill (From the album "PARTNERS, BROTHERS AND FRIENDS") Watch out when they start to twist Hold tight with a leather fist that's what my daddy told me how to ride the bull[s] there's a jingle in my jeans, sore places in between; I'm leaving Tennesee with a push and pull. Chorus: Ten-four, buddy, come on back. horse trailer on a Cadillac, you're talking to the cowboy in the Coupe de Ville. chug a lug up one side, fly/glide[/slide] down the other, I'm a lover of the other side of the hill. Turn up that radio and don't think about rodeo, Don't think about Roundup up in old Cheyenne. It's a crazy circuit, but you still work it. Won't you turn the sound up, [and] let's check the scan. Chorus Bandanna on the rearview mirror Still wet from ear to ear; Once again it's proven what the wise men say - When you ride the last one, you better make it a fast one Jump while he's movin, just walk away. Chorus The url had a really obvious mistake "short places in between" and some typos (provin' instead of proven) and a copyright date of half a decade after I heard the song. One reason I wanted the lyrics is because it was very hard to catch some of the words on the homemade tape I had.
