Текст Pete Townshend – There’s A Fortune In Those Hills

Текст:

I walk past the old veranda
Where grandad sat rocking
He was gazing at the mountains
And he didn’t hear me knocking

He smiled as I approached him
Said how’s my sonny’s boy
The wind was quietly whistling
As he told me of his joy

There’s a fortune in those hills
And I’m gonna find it some day
There’s a fortune in those hills
And I’m gonna find, it’s gonna be mine
I’m gonna find it some way

Picked up his steel string guitar
And started the upward climb
I just quietly followed
Carrying the bread and the wine
We reached a stone and sat awhile
Grandad wiped my brow
He looked at me like a brother
Said, «Boy, it ain’t far now»

There’s a fortune in those hills
And I’m gonna find it some day
There’s a fortune in those hills
And I’m gonna find, it’s gonna be mine
I’m gonna find it some way

There’s a fortune in that cabin
And granddad knows too well
There’s a man in there with long black hair
There’s a man you’ll never sell

Reached and pushed the door
Pretending we’ve done right
The face I saw in there
I’ll remember all my life
Gripped by cool attraction
Followed where granddad stepped
When I walked inside
Just rats and rust were left

There’s a fortune in those hills
And I’m gonna find it some day
There’s a fortune in those hills
I’m gonna find, it’s gonna be mine
I’m gonna find it some day

There’s a fortune in those hills
And I’m gonna find it some day
There’s a fortune in those hills
And I’m gonna find, it’s gonna be mine
I’m gonna find it some way
