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 and the geese are all gone You got to fly and let fly 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 and you've made it rhyme And we can go crazy, tomorrow’s just fine [Verse 2] I'm going to sit on the front porch Until 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] [Outro] You got to love and let love And we can go loving any old time You got to fly and let fly
