There's a whole mess of trouble up on Choctaw Hill
You're sister couldn't make it but I bet you will
Knockin' back a jelly jar of watermelon wine
I ain't never seen a place where the sun can't...
Wash off all your make up with a garden hose
Watch the freckles sparkle down the ridge of your nose
With you lemon yellow ribbons and your bleach blonde hair
Blendin' in the sun untill you're barely there
Blendin' in the sun untill you're barely there
We'll be off the radar, off the map
Stretched out in the tall green grass
It's only green, against the blue
It's only me, against you
A man that says 'Dreams don't last'
Never slept in the tall green grass
A man that says 'coo-coo-cachoo'
Did some time in the tall green grass with you
Warm molasses midnight on a Mississippi star
Candy aplle moon on the hood of my car
Never could've told me you'dve gone this far
I can't even tell you where the fuck we are.
Must be off the radar, off the map
Stretched out in the tall green grass
It's only green, against the blue
It's only me, against you
A man that says 'Dreams don't last'
Never slept in the tall green grass
A man that says 'coo-coo-cachoo'
Did some time in the tall green grass with you
Leave your reservations in the cold red clay
We got the tall green grass
For the whole damn day.
We'll be off the radar off the map
Stretched out in the tall green grass
It's only green, against the blue
It's only me, against you
A man that says 'Dreams don't last'
Never slept in the tall green grass
A man that says 'oooooooooh'
Did some time in the tall green grass with you
