Emerald Mantle

Emerald Mantle
作词/作曲：Evans
(Mmm-hmm, yeah)
(Guitar slap-beat starts)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
I was walking down the valley road
With a heavy heart and a heavy load
Then I saw her by the old oak tree
Looking like a vision, looking like a dream
She didn't say a word, just a simple smile
But she made me want to stay a while
And the wind began to whisper low
(Whisper low)
Everywhere she'd go, the colors glow
(Colors glow)
Her mantle so green, green, green
The prettiest thing I've ever seen
Yeah, her mantle so green, green, green
Like a summer field in a velvet sheen
Oh, she’s the queen, in her mantle so green
(So green!)
Green, green, emerald glow
(Green, green)
High and low, everywhere we go
(Green, green)
She's the light in the middle of the scene
In her mantle so green
(Yeah!)
Now the flowers bow as she passes by
Underneath the canvas of a sapphire sky
Got a rhythm in her step, got a grace in her hand
The finest lady in all of the land
I’d follow her tracks through the morning dew
Just to get a glimpse of that vibrant hue
And the wind began to whisper low
(Whisper low)
Everywhere she'd go, the colors glow
(Colors glow)
Her mantle so green, green, green
The prettiest thing I've ever seen
Yeah, her mantle so green, green, green
Like a summer field in a velvet sheen
Oh, she’s the queen, in her mantle so green
(So green!)
(G-G-Green, G-G-Green)
It’s the color of the life she brings
(G-G-Green, G-G-Green)
It’s the song that the forest sings
(Oh-oh-oh)
Her mantle so green, green, green
The prettiest thing I've ever seen
Yeah, her mantle so green, green, green
Like a summer field in a velvet sheen
Oh, she’s the queen, in her mantle so green
(So green!)
Emerald glow, let it show
(So green, so green)
In the valley where the grasses grow
(She's the queen)
Her mantle so green
(Mmm-hmm)
