Green Grasses Lyrics - Kingston Trio

John Stewart 

"Way out by lonely bayou. There waits a girl where the green grasses grow. 

Waits she there with a tear in her eye dreaming of years that long have gone by. 

How I yearn for the days that are gone! I'd wake in the morning to a whippoorwill song. 

There by the fire sits my lady fair. Singing this song as the combs her long hair. 

Now I'm thinkin' home I must go 'cause I've been wandrin' where the four winds blow. 

Startin' tonight with the big April moon, she'll be by my side by the third day of June.
