Well, for starters, it's not a song - it's a "tune" or a "piece". Songs have lyrics. "Green Onions" is an instrumental piece. It was a warm-up jam improvised in a Memphis studio by a group of musicians hired to do back up for another performer. As is common in studio work, the tape was running, even though it was just a warm-up. Organist Booker T. Jones dropped into a groove, followed by Drummer Al Jackson, and Bassist "Duck" Dunn. Steve Cropper was on guitar - a replacement for another guitarist who could not make the date. When they finished the improv/warmup (the record that became so famous) Dunn said "That stunk so bad, we ought to call it Green Onions!" The recording engineer disagreed, though, it was eventually released as a single, and the rest, as they say, is history.
