Yesterday morning I did see blossoms on the apple tree,
I took a breath and thought, could it be, it's green-up time!
Then I began to look around and in ev'ry field I found
Greens were a-pushin' up through the ground for green-up time!

And sure enough the bluebells tinkled April in the glen,
And sure enough I fell in love with love again!
Then I started feeling awful bright, had a thought that hit me right,
I'll have my honey dance me tonight and have a time
To welcome in the green-up time!
