Well, take me back down where cool water flows,
E
Let me remember things I love,
E
Stoppin’ at the log where catfish bite,
C
Walkin’ along the river road at night,
A E
Barefoot girls dancin’ in the moonlight.
E
I can hear the bull-frog callin' me, how!
E
Wonder if my rope's still hangin to the tree.
E
Love to kick my feet way down to shallow water, ah
C
shoe-fly, dragonfly get back to mother.
A E
Pick up a flat rock, skip it 'cross Green a-River.
E
Up to Cody's camp I spent my days -- ya'll
E
with flat-car riders an' crosstie walkers
E
Old Cody Junior took me over, said,
C
"You're gonna find the world is smolderin',
A E
and if you get a-lost, come on home to Green a-River."
