(It's so good to touch the green green grass of
home) The old hometown looks the same as I step
down from the train And there to meet me is my
mama and papa And 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 Yes
they'll all come to meet me arms areaching and
smiling sweetly It's so 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 that I used to play on

of gold and lips like cherries It's good to touch
the green green grass of home Then I awake and
look around me to the four grey walls that
surround me And I realize 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 grass 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 grass of
home
