The old home town looks the same
|
As I step down from the train
|
And there to meet me is my mama and papa
|
|
Down the road I look and there comes Mary
|
Hair of gold and lips like cherries
|
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home
|
|
Yes, they'll all be there to meet me
|
Arms reaching smiling sweetly
|
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 that old oak tree 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
|
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home
|
|
The old home town looks the same
|
As I step down from the train
|
And there to meet me is my mama and papa
|
|
Down the road I look and there comes 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
|
In the shade of the old oak tree
|
As they lay me 'neath the green, green grass of home
|
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home
|
