Lyrics
Gone Green
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, he traded in his dumb old Ford
For a new smart car with an extension cord
Now he’s saving gas and got a cheaper note
But he’s got no way to haul his boat
It’s the little things we take for granted
When we sacrifice to save the planet
Darndest thing I’ve ever seen
That old redneck has done gone green
Down the road, old man McGower
You know he runs his house on the solar power
Now his lights are bright and the music plays
Sorta dark and quiet on the cloudy days
The life we knew is coming to a halt
It’s sad but true and it’s our own fault
We put our own crimson necks right in the noose
When we got strung out on that black dinosaur juice
Well not long ago someone told me
To quit using paper, stop killing trees
She said soon there won’t be no more books
I swear to God on a stack of Nooks
It’s the little things we take for granted
When we sacrifice to save the planet
Darndest thing I’ve ever seen
My redneck world has done gone green
The whole dang place has done gone green
