Green Tambourine Lyrics
Drop your silver in my tambourine
Help a poor man fill his pretty dream
Give me pennies I'll take anything
Now listen while I play
My green tambourine
Watch the jingle jangle start to chime
Reflections of the music that is mine
When you drop a coin you'll hear it sing
Now listen while I play
My green tambourine
Drop a dime before I walk away
Any song you want I'll gladly play
Money feeds my music machine
Now listen while I play
My green tambourine
Help a poor man fill his pretty dream
Give me pennies I'll take anything
Now listen while I play
My green tambourine
Reflections of the music that is mine
When you drop a coin you'll hear it sing
Now listen while I play
My green tambourine
Any song you want I'll gladly play
Money feeds my music machine
Now listen while I play
My green tambourine

This is a really cool song... very trippy
This was one of the first (and best) songs of the "psychedelic pop" era of the sixties.
Also give "Jelly Jungle" by Lemon Pipers a listen : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HF5ljizS0zc
Cool song! Enough said :)
"When you drop a coin you'll hear it sing" should read "When you TOSS a coin you'll hear it sing"
It's about playing a green instrument.
