lyrics

Girl On The Green (MacDonell/Robinson/CStorie/JStorie)

I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
Hemmed in mud but she kept on spinning
whirling in the expo section
out there reeling with no reason
dancing in the harvest season oh
I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
I don't care what my Maisy's saying
out there in the expo secion
it's not like I'm betrothed to wedding
I don't care what my Maisy's saying
I'm gonna marry that girl who's dancing
I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
one day saw down on the green
saw a girl dancing while I was singing
She did dance while I did sing
not like I'm betrothed to wedding
I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
I'm gonna marry that girl who's dancing
Oh she did dance while I did while I did sing
jig above the mud and dancing
out there in the muddy green
Oklahoma harvest green
Oh I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
gonna marry that girl get her off of that green
Well she had a halo of mud on her gown
mussed up brown mud all around
mussed in a halo of a mudded up brown
she stepped over clover but she never looked down
Down in the valley where I met that girl
thought nobody ever was a'better did twirl
down there just she kept on carrying on
oh I kept singing 'less'n she be all gone
I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
gonna marry that girl get her off of that green
I'm gonna marry that girl on the green
I was a'fearing to blink my eye
I was a'fearing to blink my eye
I was a'fearing to blink my eye
she'd be all gone when the song's a'silent
Sang my song 'til my voice went dry
I sang my song until my voice went dry
apparition was all gone
a'fore I opened up my eye
I asked her daddy but her daddy was drunk
when he did think he thought he thunk
asked her momma instead
but she didn't like men and she carried a gun
I'm not gonna marry that girl on the green
not gonna marry that girl on the green
I'm not gonna marry that girl on the green
gonna marry my safe old Maisy instead
Oh Maisy Maisy lend me your ear and I'll sing a tune for you...
