JONI MITCHELL - Little Green lyrics

rate me

Born with the moon in cancer<br>Choose her a name she will answer to<br>Call her green and the winters cannot fade her<br>Call her green for the children who've made her<br>Little green, be a gypsy dancer<br><br>He went to california<br>Hearing that everything's warmer there<br>So you write him a letter and say, her eyes are blue.<br>He sends you a poem and she's lost to you<br>Little green, he's a non-conformer<br><br>Ch0rus:<br><br>Just a little green<br>Like the color when the spring is born<br>There'll be crocuses to bring to school tomorrow<br>Just a little green<br>Like the nights when the northern lights perform<br>There'll be icicles and birthday clothes<br>And sometimes there'll be sorrow<br><br>Child with a child pretending<br>Weary of lies you are sending home<br>So you sign all the papers in the family name<br>You're sad and you're sorry, but you're not ashamed<br>Little green, have a happy ending<br><br>Chorus:<br><br>Just a little green<br>Like the color when the spring is born<br>There'll be crocuses to bring to school tomorrow<br>Just a little green<br>Like the nights when the northern lights perform<br>There'll be icicles and birthday clothes<br>And sometimes there'll be sorrow
