Blue and Green - Live at the Fillmore

Can't you hear your momma talkin'
 She told you to hush your rattlin' tongue
 Sit down in your chair boy
 Eat your supper and leave your brother alone
 I was once just like you
 I was green and blue
 My mother told my father one day
 How much she had loved her life with him
 Then she rose up from her body
 And vanished in the blue and green of spring
 She was once just like me
 Now she's gone into the blue and green
 Blue and green
 Blue and green
 You ain't lived 'til you seen the blue and green
 You should've seen my grandmother
 She was tough and strong as any man
 But she was sweet and gentle when
 She held you like the lover she used to have
 He was gone
 Now so is she
 But they live on in the blue and green
 Blue and green
 Blue and green
 You ain't lived 'til you seen the blue and green
 Keep on growin' up so fast
 And life'll hit you hard as you can take
 Tell me all your troubles boy
 And I will try to take those troubles away
 You were once just like me
 We're all comin' from the blue and green
 Blue and green
 Blue and green
 You ain't lived 'til you seen the blue and green
 Can't you hear your momma talkin'
 She told you to hush your rattlin' tongue
