Barefoot in the pastures of my childhood homestead
Rocks through yonder broken windows
Screaming lullabies for little guys in bunk beds
And the cottonwoods in summer are falling like snow
Many moons ago
Dirt roads and a six-pack sleeping on the floorboards
Daddy always liked to drive
Hope he's coming home tonight
School bus kicking dust out on some rural route to Nowhere, USA
Twelve year old me in the back bench
Just learning how to pray
I once heard someone say
"Green isn't yellow
So go ahead
Or run away
Sometimes, just a little blue will get you brave"
Four dollars in quarters from some laundry lottery
A pack of Bubblicious and a Playboy magazine
July 1996, Jenny McCarthy
A rope swing and a spillway swimming hole at Blackwell Lake
Iced tea in some dusty whisky bottle looks the same
A harvest moon and flowers bloom and Lindy was her name
And a cap and gown, then I left town, I'll always mark the day
I heard my old man say
"Green isn't yellow
So go ahead
Or run away
Sometimes, just a little blue will get you brave"
Get you brave
Green isn't yellow
The All-American Rejects are an American pop rock band formed in Stillwater, Oklahoma, at the end of the 1990s. Their first EP was independently released in 2000, followed by a second EP, *Same Girl, New Songs*, in 2001. After touring with the EP, the band signed with Doghouse Records and their self-titled debut album was released in 2002. The album reached number 25 on the US Billboard charts and also did well in the UK, where it peaked at number 19. The success of the album was due, in part, to the single *Swing Swing*, which reached the top ten of the US Modern Rock chart and achieved good radio airplay. Other representative tracks include *Dirty Little Secret* and *Move Along*. Their second album, *Move Along*, released in 2005, solidified the band's success with the title track reaching number one on the US Modern Rock chart.
