1
The old hometown looks the same
2
As I step down from the train
3
And there to meet me is my mama and papa
4
And down the road I look and there runs Mary
5
Hair of gold and lips like cherries
6
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.
7
Yes, they'll all come to meet me
8
Arms a-reaching, smiling sweetly
9
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.
10
The old house is still standing
11
Though the paint is cracked and dry
12
And there's that old oak tree that I used to play on
13
Down the lane I walk with my sweet Mary
14
Hair of gold and lips like cherries
15
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.
16
And then suddenly I awake and look around me
17
At these cold grey walls that surround me
18
And it's then that I realize that I was only dreaming
19
For there stands a guard and there's the sad old padre
20
Arm in arm we'll walk at daybreak
21
And once again I'll touch the green, green grass of home.
22
Yes, they'll all come to see me in the shade of that old oak tree
23
As they lay me 'neath the green, green grass of home...
