Burl Ives – Green Turtle

Burl Ives – Green Turtle Lyrics

Artist: Burl Ives
Song: Green Turtle

Green turtle sitting by a hole in the wall
Hole in the wall, hole in the wall
Green turtle sitting by a hole in the wall
Looking at the deep blue sea

Green turtle looks so lonely, reminds me of me
I bet he’s got a little girl turtle waiting somewhere in the sea
And I haven’t seen my Bodinya in a long long time I know
But I’m sailing home just as soon as the winds from the old West Indies blow

Green turtle sitting by a hole in the wall
Hole in the wall, hole in the wall
Green turtle sitting by a hole in the wall
Looking at the deep blue sea

Green turtle he’s been a-crying and I’ve been crying too
I bet he’s thinking ’bout his little girl turtle waiting somewhere in the blue
I’ve been thinking ’bout Bodinya and oh I miss her so
But I’m sailing home just as soon as the winds from the old West Indies blow

Green turtle sitting by a hole in the wall
Hole in the wall, hole in the wall
Green turtle sitting by a hole in the wall
Looking at the deep blue sea
