Green Man Lyrics

Well my Great Great Greats came from a Great Land

And it was there I met a lady and I thought I’d win her hand

But a Spirit it had got her and I was jealous understand

Of the Green Man Green Man

The Green Man Green Man Spirit of the Land

When you’re walking through the kitchen does he take you by the hand

When you’re mopping up the floor does he hold the dust pan

Green Man Green Man

So I gave her a ring and she wore it NOT

Instead she wore a stem tied in a knot

She laughed when I cursed and I cursed a lot

At the Green Man Green Man

La La La ah ah La La La ah Ha

La La La ah Ha

Green Man Green Man

I joined her Green Party where I thought I’d Learn

Why she frustrated me at every turn

When I walked she would run she’d tan I’d Burn

Sun helped Green Man Green Man

One day I took a course in Chemistry

Made a fertilizer cheap as can be

Needed no sun nor water this D D T

Beat that Green Man Green Man

La La La ah ah La La La ah Ha

La La La ah Ha

Green Man Green Man

Well the Green Green Man lost all his bees

The Eagles Eggs broke up in his Trees

Didn’t mean to Trip you up got on my knees

Forgive me Green Man Green Man

So now he ran and he ran and he ran and he ran

When he paused he knew pollution got the upper hand

So he never stopped until he left the land

I miss you Green Man Green Man

La La La ah ah La La La ah ah

La La La
