Yellow is the colour of my true love's hair

in the mornin' when we rise,

in the mornin' when we rise,

that's the time, that's the time,

i love the best.

blue's the colour of the sky

in the mornin' when we rise,

in the mornin' when we rise.

in the mornin' when we rise.

that's the time, that's the time

i love the best.

green's the colour of the sparklin' corn

in the mornin' when we rise,

in the mornin' when we rise.

in the mornin' 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 hmm,

when i see her, uh huh.

that's the time, that's the time

i love the best.

freedom is a word i rarely use

without thinkin', mm hmm,

without thinkin', mm hmm,

of the time, of the time

when i've been loved.
