charley pride – green green grass of home lyrics
(it’s so good to touch the green green gr-ss of home)
the old hometown looks the same as i step down from the train
and there to meet me is my mama and papa
and 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
yes they’ll all come to meet me arms areaching smiling sweetly
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
and 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 areaching smiling sweetly
it’s good to touch the green green gr-ss of home
then i awake and look around me at the cold grey walls that surround me
and i realize that i was only dreaming
for there’s a guard and there’s a sad old padre arm in arm we’ll walk at daybreak
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
