The Old Home Town Looks The Same,
As I Step Down From The Train,
And There To Meet Me is My Mamma And Pappa;
Down The Road I Look, And There Runs Mary,
Hair Of Gold and Lips Like Cherries,
It's Good To Touch The Green, Green Gra** Of Home.
Chorus:
Yes, They'll All Come To Meet Me,
Arms reachin', Smilin' Sweetly,
It's Good To Touch The Green, Green Gra** Of Home.
The Old House Is Still Standin,
'though The Paint Is Cracked And Dry,
And There's That 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 Gra** Of Home.
Then I Awake And Look Around Me,
At Four Gray Walls That Surround Me,
And I Realize, Yes, 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'Ll Touch The Green Green Gra** Of Home.
Chorus:
Yes, They'll All Come To see Me,
in the shade of that old oak tree
as they lay me neath the
Green Green Gra** Of Home.
