Over the Hills Lyrics
Well, I could hear it when the rivers crying
And I could see it through the fog
And I could reach into magnetic fields now
To steal a hammer and a gun
For every engine down
Yes, I will find a new
I'm going over the hills now
I'm going into the blue
And I will tell it to the mighty wind that
I have betrayed it once again
And I will listen to the backwards music
With a propeller in my hand
For every child in tears
I will throw down a hand
I'm going over the hills now
I'm going over as planned
And every morning I will push the button
To bring the sun above our head
And with the smiling face I drew upon it
I will consider it as said
That every lie I tell
Will arrive like it's true
I'm going over the hills now
I'm going into the blue
Oh, honey!
And I will hijack every morning railroad
Perhaps I'll die upon that train
Perhaps I'll turn the wheel to slide it over
Into the long and narrow trail
And I would bounce the moon
On the earth if I could
I'm going over the hills now
I'm going over now for good
And I could see it through the fog
And I could reach into magnetic fields now
To steal a hammer and a gun
For every engine down
Yes, I will find a new
I'm going over the hills now
I'm going into the blue
I have betrayed it once again
And I will listen to the backwards music
With a propeller in my hand
For every child in tears
I will throw down a hand
I'm going over the hills now
I'm going over as planned
To bring the sun above our head
And with the smiling face I drew upon it
I will consider it as said
That every lie I tell
Will arrive like it's true
I'm going over the hills now
I'm going into the blue
Perhaps I'll die upon that train
Perhaps I'll turn the wheel to slide it over
Into the long and narrow trail
And I would bounce the moon
On the earth if I could
I'm going over the hills now
I'm going over now for good

Pretty good lyrics. Although I think you missed a few. Such as instead of "for every child in tears, i will go down a hill" I think it should be "For every child in tears, I will throw down a hand" It follows the rhyme scheme better. Also "That every lie I tell, will alright like it's true" should be "That every lie I tell, will arrive like it's true". And the very last verse I always thought he said "I would bounce the moon on the Earth if I could" Although I'm not sure.
