"But you drive a car, Dad!" my son Noah says. Even if we don't do everything we could do to make a difference, let this song serve as a reminder to try!!
You gotta keep it green
You gotta keep it clean
You know just what I mean
You gotta keep it green
You gotta keep it blue
That's what we got to do
It's up to me and you
We gotta keep it blue
Some people make this old earth dirty,
not me
I'm gonna clean it up, just wait and see
You gotta show you care
For the land and sea and air
You gotta do your share,
You gotta show you care
instrumental verse
Some people shake their heads and grumble,
not me
I'm gonna make a difference,
just wait and see
You gotta keep it green
You gotta keep it clean
You know just what I mean
You gotta keep it green
You gotta keep it blue
That's what we got to do
It's up to me and you
We gotta keep it blue
You gotta show you care
For the land and sea and air
You gotta do your share,
You gotta show you care
We’ve got to show we care
