Green Green Green Lyrics

Walking with my honey down by the water

Green green green

Spring is in the air but we're doin' what we order

I'm just a poor boy she's the banker's daughter

Green green green



Nights are warm and sun is in the valley

Green green green

Nights are warm and sun is in the valley

Warm and sweet were kisses from my Sally

Green gren green



Love made us warm and we really shouldn't tarry

Green green green

Love made us warm and we really shouldn't tarry

Cause she's only seventeen and not allowed to marry

Green green green

[ guitar ]

I went to the banker ask him for his daughter

Green green green

I went to the banker ask him for his daughter

He flew into a rage and he said I couldn't court he

Green green green



The leaves're fallin' and where is my honey

Gold gold gold

The leaves're fallin' and where is my honey

Curse on that banker and curse on his money

Gold gold gold



Snow is fallin' on the sun and valley

Gone gone gone

Snow is fallin' on the sun and valley

I'm worried and sick for my darlin' Sally

Gone gone gone

[ guitar ]

They pull her body from the freezing water

Cold cold cold

They pull her body from the freeing water

There beneath the tree lay our baby daughter

Cold cold cold



Digging two graves down by the water

Green green green

Digging two graves down by the water

One for my true love one for baby daughter

Green green green
