The song "Green Velvet" is not as well known on the continent such as "Songs from the Wood", but for every Jethro Tull fan a MUST!

Velvet green

Walking on velvet green. Scots pine growing.

Isn't it rare to be taking the air, singing.

Walking on velvet green.

Walking on velvet green. Distant cows lowing.

Never a care when your legs in the air, singing.

Walking on velvet green.

Won't you have my company, yes, take it in your hands.

Go down on velvet green, with a country man.

Who's a young girls fancy and an old maid's dream.

Tell your mother that you walked all night on velvet green.

One dusky half-hour's ride up to the north.

There lies your reputation and all that you're worth.

Where the scent of wild roses turns the milk to cream.

Tell your mother that you walked all night on velvet green.

And the long grass blows in the evening cool.

And August's rare delight may be April's fool.

But think not of that, my love,

I'm tight against the seam.

And I'm growing up to meet you down on velvet green.

1 ... 2... 3... 4

Now I may tell you that it's love and not just lust.

And if we live the lie, let's lie in trust.

On golden daffodils, to catch the silver stream

that washes out the wild oat seed on velvet green.

We'll dream as lovers under the stars

of civilizations raging afar.

And the ragged dawn breaks on your battle scars.

As you walk home cold and alone upon velvet green.

Walking on velvet green. Scots pine growing.

Isn't it rare to be taking the air, singing.

Walking on velvet green.

Walking on velvet green. Distant cows lowing.

Never a care with your legs in the air, loving.

Walking on velvet green.

A most excellent version of a song from what I consider to be the best Tull album. I was kinda bummed by Bariemore Barlow's comments that he didn't care for David Palmers musical contribution to the band. I'm here to tell you BB that while I have always loved the manic Mr. Evan and considered him the definitive keyboardist for the band I thought Songs and Heavy Horses to be near perfect as recorded. R.I.P. John Glascock.

If John Dowland had his own rock band it might have sounded like this.

I don't think people realise how difficult this song is to perform, it is one of their more difficult songs, tempo changes, use of difficult instruments etc

Thanks so much for uploading this. One of my favourite Tull songs (although I say that just about every time I hear a Tull song).

Many thanks for this post. Shows Tull during some fine years - although I would say ANY time for Tull is fine. Even if its "just" Ian and a band he has picked, the music, lyrical content, and performances are always superb. 2013 and they are still out doing "Thick as Brick 1 and 2". Tight as ever, and regardless of some voice degeneration, Ian's still got it! And by the way, the 40-year-later Thick as a Brick 2 is quite good - - and outstanding live.
