joe tex - green green grass of home lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
the old hometown looks the same
as i step down from the train
and there to meet me is my mama and my papa
and down the road i look and, there runs mary
hair of gold and lips like cherries

[hook]
it’s good to touch the green+green grass of home

[verse 2]
the old house is still standing
though the paint is cracked and dry
and there’s that old oak tree, huh
that i used to play on
and down the lane i walk with sweet+sweet mary
hair of gold and lips like cherries
[hook]
it’s good to to+to+touch the green+green grass of home

[verse 3]
yes, they’ll all come to see me
in the shade of that old oak tree
as i touch the green+green grass of home

[verse 4]
then i’ll awake, i’ll look around me
at four grey walls that surround me
and i’ll realize that i’ve only dreamin’, all the time
for you see, there’s a guard and there’s a sad old padre
in arm in arm, we’ll walk at daybreak
and again i’ll touch the green+green grass of home, oh

[outro]
yes, they’ll all come to meet me
in the shade of that old oak tree
as they lay me ‘neath the green+green grass of home, home
