Bilingual
The old hometown looks the same
As I step down from the train
There to meet me is my mama and papa
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
The old house is still standing
Gonna paint it cracked and drab
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
Yes, they all come to see me
All the riches smile sweetly
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home
Then I wake and look around me
At four grey walls just surround me
Then I realize, yeah, I was just only dreamin'
There's a guard and there's a sad old padre
Arm in arm, we just walk at daybreak
Then again, I'll touch the green, the green, green grass of home
Yes, they all come to see me
In the shade of that old oak tree
It's a lady who needs the green, green grass of home
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home
