Porter Wagoner sings 'Green, Green Grass of Home' at the Porter Wagoner Show in 1972. This has been a #4 country hit for Porter in 1965. Songwriter was Claude 'Curly' Putman Jr.

Lyric:

The old hometown looks the same as I step down from the train

And there to meet me is my mama and papa

And 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 areached smiling sweetly

It's so 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 walk with my sweet Mary hair of gold and lips like cherries

It's good to touch the green green grass of home

Then I awake and look around me at these four grey walls that surround me

And I realize that I was only dreaming

For there's a guard and there's that sad old padre arm in arm we'll walk at daybreak

And again I'll touch the green green grass of home

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

Some are best live and some are best in the studio.Porter Wagoner excelled in this format with his weekly show. A little bit of both.That look in his eye as he speaks the narrative. There's no questioning his genuineness with his spontaneity. The man is just a darned good old boy.

Many years ago I first heard this song, and it was Porter who sang it. I really liked it, but never heard it that often until suddenly numerous artists sang and recorded it as well. While there are many different recordings, I still think Porter Wagoner sang it the best.
