Biography:
Pat Green was born in San Antonio and raised in Waco, Texas, the eighth of nine siblings. His father was a stage actor, and Green fell in love with the musicals his father acted in.
Green began his musical career when he was 18 and in college at Texas Tech in Lubbock. "I started playing guitar to pick up the chicks," Green laughs. "Before that, I only sang in the shower. I could mimic other people's voices. It took me a long time to find my own voice, but once I did, I became very comfortable with it.

D G D
When I was a child my family would travel
A D
Down to western Kentucky where my parents were born.
G D
There's a backwards old town that's often remembered
A D
So many times that my memories are worn.
D G D
- Dad won't you take me back to Mulenburg County,
A D
Down by the Green River where paradise lays.
G D
He said, "I'm sorry my son, but you're too late in askin'.
A D
Mr Peabody's coal-train has hauled it away." -
D G D
Well sometimes we're travel right down to Green River
A D
To the abandoned old prison down by Avery Hill.
G D
Where the air smelled like snakes, we'd shoot with our pistols
A D
But empty pop bottles are all we would kill.
D G D
Then the coal company came with the worlds largest shovel,
A D
They torchered the timber, stripped all the land.
G D
Dug for the coal til the land was forsaken.
A D
Wrote it all down as a progrss for man.
D G D
When I die let my ashes float down the Green River,
A D
Let my soul roll on up to the Rodchester Dam.
G D
And I'll be half way to Heaven with paradise waitin'
A D
Just five miles away from whereever I am.
When I was a child my family would travel
A D
Down to western Kentucky where my parents were born.

There's a backwards old town that's often remembered

So many times that my memories are worn.
