Lyrics
Just a Little Green
(C) Lyrics: Jeri Long Simpson, Music: Susan Foster Trewick
    
He’s just a little green.  He’s wet behind the ears.
He tries to pose and preen. He’s not what he appears.  
Don’t tell him to be cool. He won’t know what you mean.
He has to play the fool. He’s just a little green.

He’s still a little young. He wants to be so bad.
His songs are still unsung, and dreams are all he’s had.
He wants to own it all, these worlds he’s never seen.
He wants it all right now. He’s just a little green.
              
Nobody else can tell him  what life is all about.
He has to learn like you did, fall and get up, figure it out.

He’s just a little green. He doesn’t have a clue.
- an unfamiliar scene? He won’t know what to do.
 He has to live and learn.  No halfway in-between. 
He has to wait his turn. He’s just a little green.

Nobody else can tell him  what life is all about.
He has to learn like you did, fall and get up, figure it out.

He’s just a little green. He doesn’t have a clue.
- an unfamiliar scene? He won’t know what to do.
 He has to live and learn.  No halfway in-between. 
He has to wait his turn. He’s just a little green.

He has to play the fool. He’s just a little green.
He wants it all right now. He’s just a little green.
