Tom Jones - Green Green Grass Of Home 1968

Tom Jones - Green Green Grass Of Home 1986

Released 1968

The old home town looks the same
as I step down from the train,
and there to meet me was 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'll 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
tho' the paint is cracked and dry,
and 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'll all come to meet me,
arms reaching, smiling sweetly.
It's so good to touch the green, green grass of home.

I love the way the old singers sing as good as their recorded voices.

Same with me. My mother played Tom Jones constantly when I was growing up in the Southwest of England. She was Welsh, and used to see TJ perform before the world heard about him.

TJ and Freddie Mercury are IMO, the 2 best vocalists of modern music EVER.

I took my mum to see him perform live in San Diego a few years ago ~ we had a wonderful time. A memory I cherish.

Sadly, she passed away 2 weeks ago. I played this song at her service.

RIP Mum - we miss you so much!
