merle haggard - green, green grass of home lyrics

Loading...

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 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
there’s the 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 so good to touch the green, green gr-ss of home.

yes they’ll all come to meet me arms a reached smiling sweetly
it’s so good to touch the green, green gr-ss of home.

then i awake and look around me at the four grey walls that surround me
and i realized that i was only dreaming
for 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…
