Lyrics
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 grass 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 grass of home And they'll all come to see me, arms reaching, smiling sweetly It's good to touch the green, green grass 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 grass 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 grass of home
