The Green Green Grass of Home Songtext
von Lianie May

The old old town looks the same
As I step down from the train
And there to meet me
Is my mama and my papa
Down the road 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 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 grass of home
Yes they'll all come to meet me
Arms reaching smiling sweetly
Oh it's good to touch the green green grass of home
Then I awake and look around me
At the grey walls that surround me
And I realise that I was only dreaming
There′s a guard and a sad old padre
Arm in arm we′ll walk at daybreak
Again I'll touch the green green grass of home
Again I′ll touch the green green grass of home
