You will need to add the other hot wire to the plug that connects the wires 
from the mast to the cabin top and then connect from the cabin top end to 
your switch.  Not sure how accessible that plug is. - rob

Marlan,

You only need 3 wires as they can share the same ground wire..  So two hots
going up for each light and then tie the grounds to one wire for the return.
