Artist/Band: Eddy Arnold
Lyrics for Song: Green Leaves of Summer
Lyrics for Album: Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye [Camden] [1971]



(Paul F. Webster - Dimitri Tiomkin)



A time to be reapin', a time to be sowin'

The green leaves of summer are callin' me home

It was good to be young then in the season of plenty

When the catfish are jumpin' as high as the sky.



A time just for plantin', a time just for plowin'

A time to be courtin' a girl of your own

Twas so good to be young then to be close to the earth

And to stand by your wife at the moment of birth.



(A time just for plantin', a time just for plowin')

(A time just for livin', a place for to die)

Twas so good to be young then to be close to the earth

Now the green leaves of summer are callin' me home.



Twas so good to be young then to be close to the earth

And to stand by your wife at the moment of birth.



The green leaves of summer are callin' me home...
