Song | Green, Green Grass of Home |
Artist | Elvis Presley |
Album | Today |
Artist:Patti Page | |
The old home town looks the same, | |
As I step down from the train, | |
And there to greet me are my mamma and my poppa; | |
Down the road I look, and there runs Mary, | |
Hair of gold, lips like cherries, | |
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home. | |
CHORUS: | |
Yes, they'll all come to meet me, | |
Arms a-reachin', smilin' sweetly, | |
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home, | |
The old house is still standin, | |
'Though the paint is cracked and dry, | |
And there's that old oak tree, | |
That I used to play in. | |
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. | |
Then I awake and look around me, | |
At the four gray walls that surround me, | |
And I realize that I was only dreaming, | |
For there's a guard and a sad old padre, | |
Arm in arm we'll walk at daybreak, | |
And at last I'll touch the green green grass of home. | |

As I step down from the train, | |
And there to greet me are my mamma and my poppa | |
Down the road I look, and there runs Mary, | |
Hair of gold, lips like cherries, | |
It' s good to touch the green, green grass of home. | |
CHORUS: | |
Yes, they' ll all come to meet me, | |
Arms areachin', smilin' sweetly, | |
It' s good to touch the green, green grass of home, | |
The old house is still standin, | |
' Though the paint is cracked and dry, | |
And there' s that old oak tree, | |
That I used to play in. | |
Down the lane I' ll walk with my sweet Mary, | |
