Green, Green Grass of Home

Green, Green Grass of Home - Elvis Presley (貓王)

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 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

All creatures 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 an old oak tree that I used to play on

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

Yes they'll all come to meet me

All creatures smiling sweetly

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

Then I awake and look around me

Cold gray walls surround me

And I realize I was only dreamin'

There's a guard there's a sad old padre

Arm and 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 shadow of that old oak tree

As they lay me beneath the green green grass of home
