bill anderson - green green grass of home lyrics
the old hometown looks the same
as i step down from the train
and 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, gr-ss of home
the old house is still standing though
the paint is cracked and dry
and 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, gr-ss of home
yes, they’ll all come to meet me
arms reaching, smiling sweetly
it’s good to touch the green, green, gr-ss of home
then i awake and look around me
at the four gray walls that surround me
and i realize that i was only dreaming
there’s a guard and there’s a sad old padre arm in arm
we’ll walk at daybreak and again
i’ll touch the green, green, gr-ss 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, gr-ss 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, gr-ss of home
