Up on the hill
    People never stare
    They just don't care
    Chinese music under banyan trees
    Here at the dude ranch above the sea

    Aja
    When all my dime dancin' is through
    I run to you

    Up on the hill
    They've got time to burn
    There's no return
    Double helix in the sky tonight
    Throw out the hardware
    Let's do it right

    Aja
    When all my dime dancin' is through
    I run to you

    Up on the hill
    They think I'm okay
    Or so they say
    Chinese music always sets me free
    Angular banjos
    Sound good to me

    Aja
    When all my dime dancin' is through
    I run to you*




I can't say enough about this jazz/rock masterpiece and title cut of one of my essential deserted island scenario albums. It is one of the most incredibly well produced albums...a treat for the ears, mind, and soul.

    Listen to Steely Dan's song "Aja" at this link...

    ...and strongly consider purchasing the album...
In my opinion, no serious music collection can be complete without it.
