Lyrics
I don't know if I'll get away
Only know what I need
Kickin' the stall both night and day
Hopin' that it satisfies me
Green grow the rushes, oh
Headed here right from the start
Green grow the rushes, so
Got about as much sense
as a mule in a swamp
Racing icy and saddle sore
Ain't no midnight rambler
Elevator down to the killing floor
Looking for a two-egg scrambler
Green grow the rushes, oh
Headed here right from the start
Green grow the rushes, so
Got about as much sense
as a mule in a swamp
I don't know if I'll get away
Only know what I need
I don't know if I'm here to stay
Only know what satisfies me
Green grow the rushes, oh
Headed here right from the start
Green grow the rushes, so
Got about as much sense
as a mule in a swamp
I don't know if I'll get away
I don't know if I'll get away
I don't know if I'll get away
