Yellow is the color of my true love’s hair
In the morning, when we rise
In the morning, when we rise
That’s the time,
That’s the time
I love the best

Blue is the color of the sky-y-y
In the morning, when we rise
In the morning, when we rise
That’s the time,
That’s the time
I love the best

Green is the color of the sparkling corn
In the morning, when we rise
In the morning, when we rise
That’s the time
That’s the time
I love the best

Mellow is the feeling that I get
When I see her, mm-hmmm,
When I see her, mm-hmmm
That’s the time,
That’s the time
I love the best

Freedom is a word I rarely use
Without thinking, mm-hmmm,
Without thinking, mm-hmmm,
Of the time,
Of the time
When I’ve been loved
