The Girl On the Greenbriar Shore - Live at Cote d'Opale, Dunkerque, France - June 1992
Lyrics
'Twas in the year of '82, In the springtime of the year, I left my mother and a home so dear All for that girl on the greenbriar shore. My mother, she says, "Son, don't go. Don't leave me here alone. Don't leave your mother and a home so dear. Never trust a girl on the greenbriar shore." But I was young and reckless too, And I craved a reckless life. I left my mother and a home so dear And I took that girl to be my wife. Her hair was dark and curly too And her lovin' eyes were blue; Her cheeks were like the red red rose That girl I loved from the greenbriar shore. The years rolled on and the months rolled by; She left me all alone. Now I remember what my momma said, "Never trust the girl on the greenbriar shore.
