Come along my brother, come along
Let us do the things, we suppose to do for our mother
Come along my sisters, come along too
But if we should live up in da, in da, in da, in da, in da, in da, in da, in da
Live up in da
(And if we should live up in the hills)
And if we should live up in the hills
(And if we should live up in the hills)
Live up in the hills, the hills
(And if we should live up in the hills)
My brother go, go to the river
To carry the water-a, the water
My sister wash up the dishes
She even goes to the shop and bring in the groceries
When my smaller brother run around
And pick up the bramble to keep the fire blazing
To keep, to keep mama fire blazing
Blazing fire, fire
(And if we should live up in the hills)
And if we should live up in the hills
(And if we should live up in the hills)
My mother hard at work
Work my mother for the children
My mother hard at work
Work my mother for her children
My daddy is gone way over, far over
Working up the cultivation
Coming with food, Daddy
Coming Daddy, come, come with food, come
And if we should live up in the hills
And if we should live up in the hills
And if we should live up in the hills
