Green Grasses - The Kingston Trio, Robert Norberg

Way out by lonely bayou.

There waits a girl where the green grasses grow

Waits she there with a tear in her eye dreaming of years that long have gone by

How I yearn for the days that are gone!

I’d wake in the morning to a

whippoorwill song

There by the fire sits my lady fair.

Singing this song as the combs her long

hair

Now I’m thinkin' home I must go 'cause I’ve been wandrin' where the four winds

blow

Startin' tonight with the big April moon, she’ll be by my side by the third day

of June

Way out by lonely bayou.

There waits a girl where the green grasses grow

Waits she there with a tear in her eye dreaming of years that long have gone by
