Q1965Tree Publishing Co., Inc.
The old home town

looks the same

as I step down

from the train.
And there to meet me

stood my Mama and Papa.
Down the road

I look and there ran Mary.

hair of gold

and lips like cherries.
Its good to touch

the green green

grass of home.
Yes. theyll all

come to meet me.

arms reaching.

smiling sweetly.
Its good to touch

the green. green

grass of home.
The old house

is still standing

though the paint

is cracked and dried.
And there?) 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.
Its 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.

yes

I was only dreaming.
For there's a guard

and there's a sad old padre.

Arm in arm

well walk at daybreak.
And again
I'll 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

the green. green

grass of home.
