Lyrics
Green River
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well, take me back down where cool water flows, yeah.
Let me remember things i love,
Stopping at the log where catfish bite,
Walking along the river road at night,
Barefoot girls dancing in the moonlight.
I can hear the bullfrog calling me.
Wonder if my rope's still hanging to the tree.
Love to kick my feet 'way down the shallow water.
Shoefly, dragonfly, get back t'your mother.
Pick up a flat rock, skip it across green river.
Welllllll!
Up at cody's camp i spent my days, oh,
With flat car riders and cross-tie walkers
Old cody, junior took me over,
Said, "you're gonna find the world is smould'ring.
And if you get lost come on home to green river."
Welllllll!
Come on home.
