flying burrito brothers - green green grass of home lyrics
putman jr.
the old home town looks the same since i step down from the train
and there to meet me was my mama and papa
down the lane 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 the old oak tree that i used to play on
down the lane i’ll walk with my sweet mary, hair of gold and lips like cherries
it’s good to touch the green, green gr-ss of home.
and they’ll all come to see 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 cold gray walls that surround me
and i realize that i was only dreamin’
’cause there stands the guard and a sad old padre and arm and arm they’ll walk at daybreak
and again i’ll touch the green, green gr-ss of home.
yes, they’ll all come to see me by the shade of the old oak tree
and they lay me meet the green, green gr-ss of home.
