My father's father's on the front porch rockin' A friend drops by, two old men talkin' Rememberin' so many other summer days Grandma's in the kitchen cookin' The hound dog's on the back porch lookin' The rooster crows the same time every day Green river, you're still my home I miss you Green river, why did I roam I miss you
Sun sets low on blue gra** meadows Lamps are lit and casting shadows We say goodbye to another perfect day Green River, you're still my home Green River, why did I roam Green River, someday I'll come home to stay Green River, you're still my home Green River, why did I roam Green River, someday I'll come home to stay
