Green, Green Grass of Home - Charley Pride

作词：Curly Putman

作曲：Curly Putman

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 mamma and pappa

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 a-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

That I used to play on

And 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 a-reaching smiling sweetly

It's good to touch the green green grass of home

Then I awake and look around

At the grey walls that surround

And I realize that I was o-only dreaming

For there's a guard and there's a sad old padre

Arm in arm we'll walk at daybreak

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
