Beautiful Jane [Cameragirl803] came up with a fantastic concept to do a sort of tag-a-long for CCR/Fogerty tunes all week. If you're a big fan off CCR, you really ought to ramble on over to Jane's channel and enjoy her terrific performance - along with some of her many, many video responses! I had a ball doing Green River. Have loved CCR since I first heard them just about forty years ago. I love the story behind "Green River" and how it's a real place but located in northern California and the name is totally different. It's like something I'd write; real but changed or not real but seemingly so.

Come on... sing along ... you know you want to!

GREEN RIVER (lyrics)

Well, take me back down where cool water flows, yeah.
Let me remember things I love,
Stoppin at the log where catfish bite,
Walkin along the river road at night,
Barefoot girls dancin in the moonlight.

I can hear the bullfrog callin me.
Wonder if my ropes still hangin to the tree.
Love to kick my feet way down the shallow water.
Shoefly, dragonfly, get back tyour mother.
Pick up a flat rock, skip it across green river.
Welllllll!

Up at codys camp I spent my days, oh,
With flat car riders and cross-tie walkers
Old cody, junior took me over,
Said, youre gonna find the world is smouldrin.
And if you get lost come on home to green river.

Welllllll!
Come on home.

Thanks for watching! Bflat
