She Wears Green Lyrics - Bobby Long

She wears silver and gold, In case she gets old 

Purple and gray to pull her astray, 

Her room it is red 

The color of her head 

Her beige isn't white 

That she drags through the night 

She wears green, oh green 

Green cloth the dagger, that scantily clad her 

She wears green, oh green 

Green to remind her I'll always be with her 

She wears violet and pink 

To vouch for the stink 

Of the rasp of the gutter 

And all hallows clutter 

Yellow and twine 

To soften the lime 

Of her Sunday best 

Her flowered church dress 

She wears green, oh green 

Green cloth the dagger, that scantily clad her 

She wears green, oh green 

Green to remind her I'll always be with her 

Black for the day 

They pull her away 

Dapple for her horses 

Her cold cuts and torches 

Cream keeps her strong 

When a man sings his song 

Plumgives her reason 

When he's fitting for treason 

She wears green, oh green 

Green cloth the dagger, that scantily clad her 

She wears green, oh green 

Green to remind her I'll always be with her 

Green to remind her I'm laying beside her
