Green Green Grass Of Home lyrics
It s good to touch the green green grass of home
The old hometown looks the same as I step down from the train
There to meet me is my mama and papa
Down the road I look and there runs Mary hair of gold and lips like cherries
It s good to touch the green green grass of home
The old house is still standing though the paint is cracked and dry
There s that old oak tree that I used to play on
Down the lane I walk with my sweet Mary hair of gold and lips like cherries
It s good to touch the green green grass of home
Yes they ll all come to meet me arms areaching smiling sweetly
It s good to touch the green green grass of home
Then I awake and I look around me at the four grey walls that surround me
And I realize that yes I realize I was only dreamin
There s a guard and there s that sad old padre arm in arm we ll walk at daybreak
And again I ll touch the green green grass of home
Yes they ll all come to see me in the shade of that old oak tree
As they lay me neath the green green grass of home
