To the tune of Rocky Top
Wish that I was in ole Rocky Hill,
Down on the D&R Canal,
Ain’t no polluters on the towpath
Ain’t nothing bad about that
Once I rode a bike through Rocky Hill
It was such a breeze
No red lights and no speed humps
Ain’t that something else
Rocky Hill, you’ll always be,
Home sweet home to me.
Good ole Rocky Hill

Once two cyclists climbed Route 518
Looking for Washington’s house
Cyclists ain’t come down from that site
Reckon they never will
George’s house has been gone a long while
They moved it long ago
That’s why all the folks in Rocky Hill
Keep on asking why
Rocky Hill, you’ll always be,
Home sweet home to me.
Good ole Rocky Hill
Rocky Hill, New Jersey
I’ve had years of biking up hills
Never thought 518 would end
All I know is there’s just
One too many
One too many a bend
Rocky Hill, you’ll always be,
Home sweet home to me.
Good ole Rocky Hill
