Little Church on the Hill (Brenda's Song) Lyrics

I loaded up my truck and I started on the drive

Up the mountain it'll be an hour and forty-five

Til I get to you

These last few months were hard on you and hard on us all

Times when I couldn't make it you'd always call

I'll miss you

When I'm on the backside of Boone nearing the state line

Those memories will rush back of all the good times

We had with you

When I cross into Tennessee

I know you're looking down on me

Just down below where you lived

Sits a little church on the hill

The wind may blow but it's peaceful still

When we lay you down

At the little church on the hill

I remember when we were young you showed us Stephen King

I still love that movie about the car named Christine

Because of you

I remember you down by the creek bank picking up river rocks

You painted those pretty pictures of water wheels and tin roof tops

I've got a few

We'd always get excited when Mawmaw said you were coming down

And as I got older I wish I'd have gotten more around

To come see you

When I get back into your town

It'll be a little strange without you around

Just down below where you lived

Sits a little church on the hill

The wind may blow but it's peaceful still

When we lay you down

At the little church on the hill

When we lay you down

At the little church on the hill
