Replacements - Hangin’ Downtown lyrics

KEY:

y - yodel

ly - long yodel

rly - really long yodel

Up on a mountain so gay and so free..huh huh

There is a young man and he's waiting there for me

Out on the lake, we'll drift with the tide

And hear those chime bells ring

Chime bells are ringing...y

Mockingbirds they're singing...y

Hush, little lover...y

Up on a summer's eve or eave...

ly

Moonbeams were shining as I kissed him there. (kiss)

Nightbirds were singing and darkness filled the air

Each little star that twinkled above

Was heaven that smiled on our love

Chime bells are ringing...y

Mockingbirds they're singing...y

Hush, little lover...y

Up on a summer's eve...

rly

rly (faster)

Should I go faster?

rly (even faster)

rly (faster still, usually a capella)

(By this time your eyes are bulging)

ly

* Chime Bells (y=yodeling) *

As Transcribed by Atz Kilcher

Up on a mountain so gay and so free..

There is a young man and he's waiting there for me

Out on the lake, we'll drift with the tide

And hear those chime bells ring

Chime bells are ringing...y

Mockingbirds are singing...y

Hush, little lover...y

Up on a summer's eve or eave...

Moonbeams were shining as I kissed him there.(swack)

Nightbirds were singing and perfume filled the air

Each little star that twinkled above

Was heaven that smiled on our love

Chime bells are ringing...y

Mockingbirds are singing...y

Hush, little lover...y

Up on a summer's eve...
