Lyrics:

Well, take me back down where cool water flows, yeah
Let me remember the 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, yeah
I wonder if my rope's still hangin' to the tree
I love to kick my feet way down the shallow water
Shoo, fly, dragonfly, get back, you mother
Pick up a flat rock, skip it across Green River
Well

Up at Cody's camp I spent my days, Lord
With flat-car riders and cross-tie walkers
Old Cody Junior took me over
Said, 'You're gonna find the world be smolderin'
And if you get a-lost, come on home to Green River'
Well
