Green River

My father's father's on the front porch rockin'

A friend drops by, two old men talkin'

Rememberin' so many other summer daysGrandma's in the kitchen cookin'

The hound dog's on the back porch lookin'

The rooster crows the same time every dayGreen river, you're still my home

I miss you

Green river, why did I roam?

I miss youSun sets low on blue grass meadows

Lamps are lit and casting shadows

We say goodbye to another perfect dayGreen river, you're still my home

Green river, why did I roam?

Green river, someday I'll come home to stayGreen river, you're still my home

Green river, why did I roam?

Green river, someday I'll come home to stay
