There's a certain hill outside of town called Sam Hill
And a certain guy used to go there every day
They said a certain girl lived up in Sam Hill
Aw, a pretty girl, not hep to city ways
This certain guy would come down the hill a smilin'
Headed back to town at the crack of dawn
And he had 'em all a wonderin' what he was doin'
Yeah, wonderin' what in Sam Hill's goin' on
We knew this certain guy was not a goldminer
Cause he never took a shovel or a pick
He only took a little box of candy
And disappeared in Sam Hill mighty quick
We tried to follow him to his destination
But he had a secret path and soon he was gone
And he had us all a wonderin' what he was doin'
Yeah, wonderin' what in Sam Hill's goin' on
I know that you have wondered too about Sam Hill
You've probably asked "What in Sam Hill's goin' on?"
All I can say in answer to your question
Is the goin's on are still goin' on
This certain guy's still takin' up his candy
He's 99 and all his youth is gone
But he climbs that hill and still comes down a smilin'
And we're wonderin' what in Sam Hill's goin' on
Wish I knew
What in Sam Hill's goin' on
He won't tell us'
What in Sam Hill's goin' on
He just snickers
What in Sam Hill's goin' on

Well, my name it is Sam Hall, Sam Hall.

Oh they took me to Cootehill in a cart, in a cart

Saying the best of friends must part, so must I, so

Up the ladder I did grope, that's no joke, that's no

rope
And ne'er a word I spoke, tumbling down, tumbling down
And ne'er a word I spoke tumbling down
Oh my name it is Sam Hall chimney sweep, chimney sweep
Oh my name it is Sam Hall chimney sweep
Oh my name it is Sam Hall and I've robbed both great

Long time no see. so tell me, how are things? just cause i was wondering-what ever became of you? you dont look well, cant hide it, i can tell. i know you love to hurt yourself. theres some things about you i wish i never new. and i wish that i could say that we're happier today. sometimes theres just some things i dont want to have to know. dont you know me? has i been too long a time?werent you once a friend of mine? it gets so hard to tell. hoping gets lonely, im lonely al the time. but time and circumstance combined and every other someone else just helped you kill the pain you felt. and i wish that i could say that we're happier today. sometimes theres just some friends i just dont want to know. sometimes some things i dont want to know. sometimes some things i dont want to have to know. the real truth is it brings no peace to swallow lies that let me sleep. theres some things about you i wish i never knew. theres some things about you-sometimes i wish i never knew you at all. i stayed a stranger ever since i learned i cant depend on friends- if ignorance is innocence. theres some things about you i wish it wasnt true. and i wish tat i could say that we're happier today. sometimes theres just some things i dont want to know. sometimes some things-i dont want to know. sometimes some things- i dont want to have to know.

Sam invents the you you want to see
Don't believe in predestiny
Bacon you never need bring home
Sam Hell gets you redeemed
By grace alone
Sam's the mayor of First Avenue
Nothing goes on he doesn't want to
A wife that wears his 'in' stocking hat
She's known for making good
Gravy and cat
Heart attack
Time to eat and pay
Cellulite won't wash away
You never knew if you'd been dead or
Just old

Oh, me name, it is Sam Hall, chimney sweep, chimney sweep
Oh, me name, it is Sam Hall, chimney sweep
Oh, me name, it is Sam Hall and I hate you one and all

Oh, they treat you like a slave, that's no lie, that's no lie
Oh, they treat you like a slave, that's no lie
Oh, they treat you like a slave from the cradle to the grave
But the rich must help the poor, so must I
I had three fine sons to feed, that's no joke, that's no joke
And a wife worn out from need, that's no joke
But the boss he said to me, "Get your brats out on the street
For they cost too much to feed", that's no lie, that's no lie
My wife died from misery, that's no lie
Oh, I struck the bastard down, I don't deny, I don't deny
Raised the black flag up on high for anarchy
Oh, I struck the bastard down, to hell with bosses, church and crown
But they hunted me to ground like a dog
Oh, they took me to Cootehill, in a cart, in a cart
Oh, they took me to Cootehill, in a cart
And the priest he said to me, "Repent or face eternity"
"Keep your rich man's God from me", so said I, so said I
He never gave a damn for me, so said I
Up the ladder I did grope, that's no joke, that's no joke
While my sons looked on with tears in their eyes
Up the ladder I did grope and the hangman pulled the rope
And the last words I spoke tumblin' down, tumblin' down
"Liberty for all mankind," tumblin' down
Oh, my name, it is Sam Hall, chimney sweep, chimney sweep
Oh, me name, it is Sam Hall, chimney sweep
Oh, me name, it is Sam Hall and I hate you one and all
