Hillsdale NY Gets A Catchy Theme Song From Richie -Your Town Thursday [AUDIO]

I didn't get a whole lot of information about this nice little town down in Columbia County, but I hopefully made due with what I had. Thanks to all the folks who helped me out on the Facebooks! Here's your song, and I think you'll recognize the tune.

If you served in the Army or know someone who did, you'll recognize this song. It starts with "Over Hill, Over Dale…….which coincidentally is both parts of the word Hillsdale. Oddly enough, Sean predicted that I would use this song which was an amazing example of E.S.P. ( or proof that warped minds think alike)

Here's the original

Now here's what I changed it to

Hillsdale Lyrics

Take some hills add a dale

and then you can tell the tale

yes it's time for a new Hillsdale song

grocery store there today

is the old school iga

and the people whol live there are strong

To get there oh gee

go southeast off 23

you may find new sidewalks in town

and you can't go wrong singing all those old folk songs

if you're not skiing at Catamount

but if your dog likes to bark

go to Roeliff Jansen Park

you can walk him or her all week long

oh and yes if you care

Maria Carey lived near here

yes this song is already too long

I hope I didn't fail

to tell you all about Hillsdale

we all salute you today

it's your town thursday

here on GNA

Thanks again to all! If you'd like to hear other small town songs --
