Lyrics
Greenwood
We call it “Greenwood”
And it is
Green
“They did a good job
Mama looked good
Se wore her blue dress”
And there’s a wood
With strong green trees
And a view
“So many flowers
So many cards
Everyone came”
A green wood filled
With the great and the small
With towers for those who stood very tall
With humble places for those
Who mattered not at all
She was laid in a satin bed
A silken pillow cradling her head
In a splendor she never enjoyed before
She was driven in a grand gray car
Grander than any other car
Than she’d ever employed before
“We found a nice little shady spot
She would have liked it there”
We call it green wood
When it’s alive
Green
“It’ll be a nice place to visit”
Yes
