whispering grass (don't tell the trees)

Singer:ringo starr

why do you whisper

green grass?

why tell the trees what ain't so?

whispering grass

the trees don't have to know

no

no. why tell them all your secrets?

who kissed there long ago?

whispering grass

the trees don't need to know. don't you tell it to the breeze

'cause they will tell the birds and bees

and ev'ryone will know

because you told the blabbering trees. yes

you told them once before

it's no secret any more. why tell them all the old things?

they're buried under the snow. whispering grass

don't tell the trees

'cause the trees don't need to know. why tell them all the old things?

they're buried under the snow. whispering grass

don't tell the trees

'cause the trees don't need to know.
