The old hometown 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've 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
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 grass of home
 
Yes, they've all come to meet me
Arms reaching smiling sweetly
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, I was only dreaming
For there's a guard and there's a sad, old padre
On and on, we'll walk at daybreak
Again, I'll touch the green, green grass of home

And yes, they'll all come to see me
In the shade of that old oak tree
As they lay me beneath the green green grass of home
As they lay me beneath the green green grass of home
As they lay me beneath the green green grass of home
