Green Green Grass Of Home(BBC 16.12.66)
The old home
- 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 grey walls
- That surround me
- And I realize yes
- That I was only dreaming
- For there's a guard
- And there's
- A sad old padre
- Arm in arm
- We'll walk at daybreak
- Again I 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
- 'Neath the green
- Green grass of home
