Lyrics
Well, take me back home where cool waters flow, y'all
And let me remember things I love, oh
Like stopping at the log where catfish bite
Walking along the river road at night
Barefoot girls, we were dancing by the moonlight
Yeah
Now I can hear the bullfrogs calling me, ow
I'm wonderin' if my rope is still hanging from the tree, y'all
I used to love to kick my feet way down in shallow water
Shoo fly, dragon fly, get back to mother
Pick up a flat rock, skim it across Green River
Well
Well
Yeah!
Hey y'all, up at Cody's camp I used to spend all my days
With flat car riders and cross-tie walkers
Now Old Cody Junior, he took me over, y'all
Said, "You're gonna find that the world is smolderin'
And if you get lost, girl, come on home to Green River"
Ooh, ow!
Well
Well, well
Old Cody Junior took me over
Said, "You're gonna find that the world is smolderin'
And if you get lost, girl, come on over to Green River"
Ow!
Oh yeah, Cody's gonna give us some real good, y'all
Come on down, let's get some fried fish
Oh, yes the girls are gonna be there dancing in the moonlight, you know what I mean
Let's kick our shoes off, y'all, and go down by the river there, ooh, yeah
Yeah
Play that funky bass, boy, yes, indeed
I'm gonna go back to Green River, yeah, yeah
Yeah
Ow!
Ah, take me back home, y'all!
Well, well, yeah, yeah
