del reeves - green green grass of home lyrics
it’s 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 a reaching smiling sweetly
it’s so 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
then i awake and look around me
at the gray walls that surround me
and i realize that i was only dreaming
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 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
