green, green

green

green

it's green

they say

on the far side of the hill

green

green

i'm going away

to where the grass is greener still

i told my mama on the day i was born

don't you cry when you see i'm gone

you know there ain't no woman gonna settle me down

i just got to keep traveling on

and i sing

green

green

it's green

they say

on the far side of the hill

green

green

i'm going away

to where the grass is greener still

you know there ain't nobody in the whole wide world

gonna show me how to spend my time

you know i'm just a good loving

rambling man

now

buddy

can you spare me a dime

and i sing

green

green

it's green

they say

on the far side of the hill

green

green

i'm going away

to where the grass is greener still

on now i don't care when the sun goes down

or where i lay my weary head

now green

green valley or rocky road

it's there i'm gonna make my bed

and i sing

green

green

it's green

they say

on the far side of the hill

green

green

i'm going away

to where the grass is greener still

one more time

green

green

it's green

they say

on the far side of the hill

green

green

i'm going away

to where the grass is greener still
