Lyrics

Well, take me back down where cool water flows, oh
Let me remember thing 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, oh
I wonder if my rope's still hangin' to the tree
Love to kick my feet way down the shallow water
Shoefly, dragonfly, get back to your mother
Pick up a flat rock, skip it across Green River
Well
Up at Cody's camp I spent my days, now
With flat car riders and cross-tie walkers
Old Cody, Junior took me over
Said, "You're gonna find the world is smoulderin'
If you get lost, come on home to Green River"
Well
Thank you, thank you very much
And good evening
We're Creedence Clearwater revisited
We gotta lot of music for you tonight
This next song is about a town Doug and I thought
We'd never get out of
Written by: John Fogerty
