Jennings Waylon Green River Lyrics

Green River Lyrics

Green River, I've come back to you

 Do you remember me

 Do you remember Mommy with the soft blue eyes?

 I left you with a lot of dreams

 None of them came true

 What I wanted was here waiting all the time

 

 Green River, did she come back every evening       

 Like the neighbors said she did so faithfully

 Green River, has she gone away forever?

 She just disappeared one day

 As she gave up on me

 

 Green River, if you see her

 Won't you tell her I've returned?

 All I brought her is myself and this little ring

 Please tell her that I love her

 And my lesson I have learned

 Green River, tell her please come back to me
