What's Shakin' on the Hill

Lyrics

There's a cool wind blowing in the sound of happy people
 At a party given for the gay and debonair
 There's an organ blowing in the breeze
 For the dancers hid behind the trees
 But I ain't never gonna see
 That I someday may be joining in is just wishful thinking
 Cause admission's only guaranteed to favored few
 There's a waiting list and plenty more
 In a long line leading to the door
 So I'll never know for sure
 I'm too blue to be played with
 And I get heartaches
 So they tell me no dice
 It isn't allowed
 In that carefree crowd
 To be seen with tears in your eyes
 So I make out I don't wanna know but I'm the pretender
 Kicking cans 'round while that happy sound keeps cracking on
 Though I long so strong to be inside
 With the blues is where I do reside
 So I'll forever be denied
 Though I long so strong to be inside
 With the blues is where I do reside
 So I'll forever be denied
 What's shakin', what's shakin', what's shakin', what's shakin', shakin' on the hill
