I met a girl, the other day
She caught my eye, yeah, she had a way
A man was singing while we had our first kiss
And then I laughed, oh, it’s bliss

‘Cause she’s a goddess in a green bandanna
She holds my soul in her hand
She says she’s scared but, oh she seems fearless
My god I’m glad to be her man

We lay in bed while it rained outside
It felt like heaven with her there by my side
We spoke of gods and a revolution
Looked in her eyes, I saw oceans

‘Cause she’s a goddess in a green bandanna
And I could be her right hand
She’s got worlds to move, and the fire’s burning
And I will help her if I can

She says she’s worried she may lose herself
I want to tell her I’ve worried the same myself
But they say feeling is the language of soul
And mine is smiling and playing rock and roll

‘Cause she’s a goddess in a green bandanna
And I will come when she calls
She says we’re friends from some former life
But I’m just glad to know her at all

‘Cause she’s a goddess in a green bandanna
She holds my soul in her hand
She says she’s scared but, oh she seems fearless
My god I’m glad to be her man
