Lyrics

[00:15.68] The old home town looks the same,
[00:20.21] As I step down from the train
[00:25.04] And there to meet me is my mamma and my poppa
[00:35.19] Down the road I look, and there runs Mary,
[00:41.47] Hair of gold and lips like cherries,
[00:45.80] It's good to touch the green, green grass of home
[00:54.74]
[00:54.60] Yes, they'll all come to meet me, Arms areaching, smiling sweetly,
[01:05.40] It's good to touch the green, green grass of home
[01:13.94]
[01:16.32] The old house is still standing,Though the paint is cracked and dry
[01:25.51] And there's that old oak tree, That I used to play on.
[01:35.39] Down the lane I'll walk with my sweet Mary,
[01:42.29] Hair of gold and lips like cherries
[01:46.37] It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.
[01:54.75]
[01:57.82] Then I awake and look around me,
[02:02.33] At the four gray walls that surround me,
[02:06.68] And I realize .Yes I was only dreaming,
[02:16.23] For there's a guard and a sad old padre,
[02:23.04] Arm in arm we'll walk at daybreak,
[02:27.64] Again I'll touch the green green grass of home
[02:35.51]
[02:35.81] Yes they'll all come to see me in the shade of that old oak tree
[02:47.03] As they lay me neath the green green grass of home
