Don't Let The Green Grass Fool You

(专辑： Spinners - 1973)

Girl, try to remember
When we didn't have no shoes
How we made it downtown to the welfare office
Just me, just you
Took a long time
Trying to get what we got now, baby
Don't you go away and give it up
To no other man, I couldn't understand

Don't let, don't let the green grass fool you
Don't let, don't let it change your mind, yeah

It's gonna be hard trying to start our lives all over
Hey, mama, you got the kind of loving that I need, oh yeah
And if you ever leave me, ever leave me down in the dumps
Without a-something in my heart, oo-wee babe
I don't think I'll live to see a brand new day
I want to hear you do it to me, said

Don't don't don't let, don't let the green grass fool you, no
Baby don't let, don't let it change your mind
Oh, it may be greener way over there somewhere
Woo, right here, girl, in these big black arms of mine is where you belong

Oh, I'm just gonna let these fellas play a little bit

Don't let the green grass fool you, baby
Don't you never ever, never ever
Never, never let it change your mind

Ooh think of me, just think of me
When the world's turned a shoulder
I'll be here, baby, yeah
And right here, girl, is where you belong

You know I had to leave for a couple days
And I met Freddie, who's got a Cadillac
And you know I always drive a Nash
But baby, he can talk sweet nothings in your ear
Woman, I got action and girl you know I got cash
And I'm saying

Don't, don't, don't, don't
Don't let the green grass fool you
Bubbling over inside me when I tell you baby
Don't let it change your mind

I can sit here all day
Just wasting the time away
Thinking about you, needing you
Just telling you, baby
That right here, girl, is where you belong
Come on home, give it to me

Don't let the green grass fool you
Don't let it change your mind
