Bein' Green (Live at the Troubadour, Los Angeles, CA - May 1973)

It's not easy bein' green
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves
When is much nicer being red, yellow or gold
Or something much more hip like that

It's not easy bein' green
You see the blend in with so many ordinary everyday things
And people tend to pass by
'Cause you're not standing out like
Sparkle on the water or stars up in the sky

But green is the color of spring
Green can be cool and friendly like
That green can be big like an ocean
Important like a mountain or tall like a tree

And when the night's all there is to be
That could make you wonder why
But to why wonder, but to why wonder?
I'm green, huh, and it'll be fine
And it's what I want to be
What I want to be
What I want to be
Ehh, biddle beep bop bop, yeah

Eyy

Green is the color of spring
Green can be cool and friendly like
And green can be big like an ocean
Important like a mountain, tall like a tree

And when green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why
Fine, right where's your town?
Ahh, where's your town?
Ahh

I'm green, it'll do fine
And it's what I want to be

I'm green, huh, it'll do fine
And it's what I want to be

I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I...
I'm green, it'll do fine
And it's what I
That's what I want to be

Thank you, thank you
