about

The Carters’ wonderfully uplifting song must have been to the Great Depression what ‘Bright Side of Life’ was to the Thatcher/Reagan era. Accurately mastering Maybelle’s syncopated guitar break is no easy task. Earl Scruggs did it though.

lyrics

The grass is just as green
The sky is just as blue
The day is just as bright
The birds are singing, too

Refrain:
You are my flower
That's blooming in the mountain for me
You are my flower
That's blooming there for me

-Solo-

The air is just as pure
The sunlight just as free
And nature seems to say
It's all for you and me

Refrain: -Solo-

So wear a happy smile
And life will be worthwhile
Forget your tears
And don't forget to smile

Refrain: -Solo-

When summertime has passed
And snow begins to fall
Just sing this song
And say to one and all
