Green, Green Grass Of Home

Green, Green Grass Of Home (家里绿色的草) - Porter Wagoner

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

Arms reaching smiling sweetly

It's good to touch the green

Green grass of home

The old house is still standing

Tho' the paint is cracked and dry

And there's that old oak tree

That I used to play on

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

Then I awake and look around me

At four gray walls that surround me

And I realize I was only dreamin'

There's a guard and

There's a sad old padre

Arm and arm we'll

Walk at daybreak again

I'll touch the green

Green grass of home

They'll all come to see me

In the shade of that old tree

As I lay me in the green

Green grass of home
