Well, take me back down where cool water flow, yeah Let me remember things I love, Lord Stoppin' at the log where catfish bite Walkin' along the river road at night Barefoot girls dancin' in the moonlight
I can hear the bullfrog callin' me (aw) Wonder if my rope's still hangin' to the tree Love to kick my feet way down the shallow water Shoo fly, dragon fly, get back to your mother Pick up a flat rock, skip it across green river Well
Up at Cody's camp I spent my days, Lord With flat car riders and cross-tie walkers Old Cody Junior took me over Said: You're gonna find the world is smolderin' And if you get lost, come on home to Green River Well (Come on home)
