Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hey, where did we go?
Days when the rains came
Down in the hollow
Playin' a new game
Laughin' and a-runnin', hey, hey
Skippin' and a-jumpin'
In the misty mornin' fog with
Oh, our hearts a-thumpin' and you
My brown eyed girl
A-you, my brown eyed girl
[Verse 2]
And whatever happened
To Tuesday and so slow?
Going down the ol' mine
With a transistor radio
Standin' in the sunlight laughin'
Hidin' 'hind a rainbow's wall
Slippin' and slidin'
All along the waterfall with you
My brown eyed girl
A-you, my brown eyed girl
[Chorus]
Do you remember when we used to sing?
Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la, te-da
Just like that
Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la, te-da
La-te, da
[Verse 3]
So hard to find my way
Now that I'm all on my own
I saw you just the other day
My, how you have grown
Cast my memory back there, Lord
Sometimes I'm overcome thinkin' 'bout
Makin' love in the green grass
A-behind the stadium with you
My brown eyed girl
A-you, my brown eyed girl
[Chorus]
Do you remember when we used to sing?
Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la, te-da (Lyin' in the green grass)
Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la, te-da (Bit by bit, by bit, by bit, by bit, by bit)
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-te-da, la-te-da, la-te-da, da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da (Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la, te-da)
Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la, te-da (Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da)
