Little green

Little Green (LP版) - Joni Mitchell (瓊尼·米契兒)

Born with the moon in Cancer

Choose her a name she'll answer too

Call her green and the winters can not fade her

Call her green for the children who have made her little green

Be a gypsy dancer

He went to California

Hearing that everything's warmer there

So you write him a letter say "her eyes are blue"

He sends you a poem and she's lost to you

Little green he's a non-comformer

Just a little green

Like the color when the spring is born

There'll be crocuses to bring to school tomorrow

Just a little green

Like the night's when the Northern lights perform

There'll be icicles and birthday clothes and sometimes

There'll be sorrow

Child with a child pretending

Weary of lies you're sending home

So you sign all the papers in the family name

You're sad and you're sorry but you're not ashamed little green

Have a happy ending

Just a little green

Like the color when the spring is born

There'll be crocuses to bring to school tomorrow

Just a little green

Like the night's when the Northern lights perform

There'll be icicles and birthday clothes

And sometimes there'll be sorrow
