Joni Mitchell - Little Green

Born with the moon in cancer
Choose her a name
she will answer to
Call her green
and the winters cannot fade her
Call her green for the children
who've made her
Little green be a gypsy dancer
He went to california
Hearing that
everything's warmer there
So you write him a letter
and say her eyes are blue
He sends you a poem
and she's lost to you
Little green
he's a non conformer
Just a little green
Like the color
when the spring is born
There'll be crocuses
to bring to school tomorrow
Just a little green
Like the nights
when the northern lights perform
There'll be icicles
and birthday clothes
And sometimes
there'll be sorrow
Child with a child pretending
Weary of lies
you are sending home
So you sign all the papers
in the family name
You're sad and you're sorry
but you're not ashamed
Little green
have a happy ending
Just a little green
Like the color
when the spring is born
There'll be crocuses
to bring to school tomorrow
Just a little green
Like the nights
when the northern lights perform
There'll be icicles
and birthday clothes
And sometimes there'll be sorrow
Born with the moon in cancer
Choose her a name
she will answer to
Call her green
and the winters cannot fade her
Call her green for the children
who've made her
Little green be a gypsy dancer
He went to california
Hearing that
everything's warmer there
So you write him a letter
and say her eyes are blue
He sends you a poem
and she's lost to you
Little green
he's a non conformer
Just a little green
Like the color
when the spring is born
There'll be crocuses
to bring to school tomorrow
Just a little green
Like the nights
when the northern lights perform
There'll be icicles
and birthday clothes
And sometimes
there'll be sorrow
Child with a child pretending
Weary of lies
you are sending home
So you sign all the papers
in the family name
You're sad and you're sorry
but you're not ashamed
Little green
have a happy ending
Just a little green
Like the color
when the spring is born
There'll be crocuses
to bring to school tomorrow
Just a little green
Like the nights
when the northern lights perform
There'll be icicles
and birthday clothes
And sometimes there'll be sorrow
