Shade of All Greens

[Verse 1]
The blackbird, she flies wherever she wants to
The mockingbird singing, oh, any old song
And the swallow, she’s nesting in the rafters of my house
Summer is coming, the geese are all gone
You got to fly and let fly

[Verse 2]
Ah, the mower’s broke down and the yard’s run away with me
I've taken to sitting and just watching it grow
And the rabbits are eating like kings in the driveway
And I've just about found me no place to go
You've got to live and let live

[Chorus]
Come sit by my side in the shade of all greens
It smells like the honeysuckle have gone to extremes
And I've found a reason, you've made it rhyme
And we can go crazy, tomorrow’s just fine

[Verse 3]
I'm gonna sit on the front porch till the lightning bugs show up
And it really gets dark and there’s dogs in the trash
It's the first and the last time all rolled into this time
You make me feel like I just took a bath
You got to laugh and let laugh

[Chorus]
Come sit by my side in the shade of all greens
It smells like the honeysuckle have gone to extremes
And I've found a reason, you've made it rhyme
And we can go laughin' any old time
You got to love and let love

[Outro]
Ah we can go loving any ol' time
You got to fly and let fly
