Green Green Grass Of Home
[Verse 1: Elvis Presley]
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

[Chorus:  Elvis Presley]
Yes, they'll all come to meet me
All creatures smiling sweetly
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home

[Verse 2:  Elvis Presley]
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
[Chorus:  Elvis Presley]
Yes, they'll all come to meet me
Arms reaching, smiling sweetly
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home

[Verse 3:  Elvis Presley]
Then I awake and look around me
Four gray walls surround me
And I realize I was only dreaming
There's a guard and there's a sad old padre
Arm and arm we'll walk at daybreak
Again I'll touch the green, green grass of home

[Chorus:  Elvis Presley]
Yes, they'll all come to meet me
In the shade of that old oak tree
As they lay me 'neath the green, green grass of home
