Thread Name: Origins: The Green Laurel / Green Grows the Laurel
Subject: RE: the green laurel / green grows the laurel
I have resurrected this thread because Pavane was asking about "Green Grows the Laurel" in another thread (about the word gringo-gringa). Two versions are here. I am also interested in finding a version (using lilacs) in which the first verse ends "Green grow the lilacs on the Oregon Trail."
