[Chorus]
Hillmen, hillmen, hillmen, hillmen
Oh oh, oh oh

[Verse 1]
Hillmen come down from the lava
Forging across the mighty river flow
Always forever
Only so you don't worry
Your pretty little head

[Chorus]
Ursa Major, Ursa Minor
Ursa Major, Ursa Minor
Hillmen, hillmen, hillmen, hillmen
Oh oh, oh oh

[Verse 2]
Hillmen bring garments, spices
Carrying trinkets, silk and precious stones, oh oh
Exotic legends
Only so you don't worry
Your pretty little head

[Chorus]
Hillmen, hillmen, hillmen, hillmen
Oh oh, oh oh

[Verse 3]
Hillmen are sworn to allegiance
Living a life of silent dignity, oh oh
For your protection
Only so you don't worry
Your pretty little head

[Outro]
Ursa Major, Ursa Minor
Ursa Major, Ursa Minor
Ursa Major
Ursa Major, Ursa Minor
Ursa Major, Ursa Minor
Ursa Major, Ursa Minor
Ursa Major, Ursa Minor
Ursa Major, Ursa Minor
Ursa Major, Ursa Minor
Ursa Major, Ursa Minor
Ursa Major, Ursa Minor
The hillman
Living in the higher reaches
Ursa Major, Ursa Minor

Paul McCartney

Sir James Paul McCartney, born June 18, 1942, is the single most successful music artist of all time. He found worldwide fame as the bass player and vocalist for The Beatles, and has continued to enjoy commercial success long after the band’s breakup.

His post-Beatles projects—the most lucrative of which was the band Wings, alongside then-wife Linda Eastman—have been met with mixed critical reception but he still retains a substantial public following, regularly conducting worldwide arena tours well into his later years.

His album sales with The Beatles, Wings and solo endeavours combined come to over 100 million, and his net worth was estimated to be approximately $1.2 billion circa 2018. He was knighted in 1997 and is known for his activism.
