Tall Green Grass

There's a whole mess of trouble up on Choctaw Hill Your sister couldn't make it, but I bet you will Knockin' back a jelly jar of watermelon wine I ain't never seen a place where the sun can't We will wash off all your makeup with a garden hose And watch the freckles sparkle down the ridge of your nose With your lemon yellow ribbons and your bleach blonde hair Blendin' in the sun until you're barely there Blendin' in the sun until you're barely there We'll be off the radar, off the map Stretched out in the tall green grass It's only green, against the blue It's only me, against you And a man that said "Dreams don't last" Never slept in the tall green grass A man that said "Coo-coo-cachoo" Did some time in the tall green grass with you Warm molasses midnight on a Mississippi star Got candy apple moon on the hood of my car Never could've told me you'd've gone this far I can't even tell you where the fuck we are Must be off the radar, off the map Stretched out in the tall green grass It's only green, against the blue It's only me, against you A man that said "Dreams don't last" Never slept in the tall green grass A man that said "Coo-coo-cachoo" Did some time in the tall green grass with you Now leave your reservations in the cold red clay We got the tall green grass For the whole damn day We'll be off the radar, off the map Stretched out in the tall green grass Only green, against the blue It's only me, against you And a man that said "Dreams don't last" Never slept in the tall green grass A man that said "Ooh" Did time in the tall green grass Did some time in the tall green grass Did some time in the tall green grass with you
