Bobby Long - SHE WEARS GREEN lyrics

She wears silver and gold, In case she gets old Purple and gray to pull her astray, Her room it is red The color of her head Her beige isn't white That she drags through the night She wears green, oh green Green cloth the dagger, that scantily clad her She wears green, oh green Green to remind her I'll always be with her She wears violet and pink To vouch for the stink Of the rasp of the gutter And all hallows clutter Yellow and twine To soften the lime Of her Sunday best Her flowered church dress She wears green, oh green Green cloth the dagger, that scantily clad her She wears green, oh green Green to remind her I'll always be with her Black for the day They pull her away Dapple for her horses Her cold cuts and torches Cream keeps her strong When a man sings his song Plumgives her reason When he's fitting for treason She wears green, oh green Green cloth the dagger, that scantily clad her She wears green, oh green Green to remind her I'll always be with her Green to remind her I'm laying beside her
