Story behind the song

Came about when all my children were little and green and now can relate to my 3 grand-children.

Lyrics

Little and Green
[2001-05-30]

Intro:
When I was little and green.

[V]
When I was little, when I was green,
things that I saw weren't always seen.
A world full of stories that from safe in my bed
mom and I would travel to in the books she read.
When I was little and green.

[V]
When I was teeny when I was green.
Stayed in the bath 'till squeaky clean.
Once in my PJ's off to bed, I would go.
Mommy, me, teddy and Pinocchio.
When I was little and green.

[C]
There was Cat in the Hat,
there was Winnie the Pooh.
Dumbo could fly, Peter Pan too.
A pig, rat, and spider were best of friends.
Sometimes I'd cry when the stories would end.
When I was little and green.

Break:

[V]
When I was small when I was green.
Lived in a kingdom where mommy was queen.
Daddy and me were fearless white knights
fighting dragons and Heffalumps until dad said, "Good-night."
When I was little and green. [Chorus]

Break:

[V]
No longer little still might be green.
Way past eleven, long past sixteen.
Life's yet filled with stories, I keep up to speed.
Along with my daughter in the books we read.
While she's little and green.
