Curly
Putman)
(Curly
Putman)
(Ohhh.)
(Ohhh.)
The
old
hometown
looks
the
same
as
I
step
down
from
the
train
Ma
ville
natale
a
l'air
la
même
quand
je
descends
du
train
And
there
to
meet
me
is
my
mama
and
my
papa
Et
là
pour
m'accueillir,
il
y
a
ma
maman
et
mon
papa
Down
the
road
I
look
and
there
runs
Mary
En
regardant
au
loin,
je
vois
Mary
courir
Hair
of
gold
and
lips
like
cherries
Les
cheveux
dorés
et
les
lèvres
comme
des
cerises
It's
good
to
touch
the
green,
green
grass
of
home.
C'est
bon
de
toucher
l'herbe
verte,
verte
de
la
maison.
Yes,
they'll
all
come
to
meet
me
Oui,
ils
vont
tous
venir
me
rencontrer
Arms
reaching,
smiling
sweetly
Les
bras
tendus,
souriant
doucement
It's
good
to
touch
the
green,
green
grass
of
home.
C'est
bon
de
toucher
l'herbe
verte,
verte
de
la
maison.
The
old
house
is
still
standing
La
vieille
maison
est
toujours
debout
Though
the
paint
is
cracked
and
dry
Bien
que
la
peinture
soit
craquelée
et
sèche
And
there's
that
old
oak
tree
that
I
used
to
play
on
Et
il
y
a
ce
vieux
chêne
sur
lequel
j'avais
l'habitude
de
jouer
It's
good
to
touch
the
green,
green
grass
of
home.
C'est
bon
de
toucher
l'herbe
verte,
verte
de
la
maison.
(Spoken)
(Parlé)
Then
I
awake
and
look
around
me
Puis
je
me
réveille
et
je
regarde
autour
de
moi
At
the
cold
grey
walls
that
surround
me
Les
murs
gris
et
froids
qui
m'entourent
And
I
realize,
yeah,
I
was
only
dreaming
Et
je
réalise,
oui,
je
ne
faisais
que
rêver
For
there's
a
guard
and
there's
a
sad
old
padre
Car
il
y
a
un
garde
et
un
vieux
prêtre
triste
Arm
in
arm
we'll
walk
at
daybreak
Bras
dessus
bras
dessous,
nous
marcherons
à
l'aube
Again
I'll
touch
the
green,
green
grass
of
home.
Encore
une
fois,
je
toucherai
l'herbe
verte,
verte
de
la
maison.
(Sang)
(Chanté)
Yes,
they'll
all
come
to
see
me
Oui,
ils
vont
tous
venir
me
voir
In
the
shade
of
that
old
oak
tree
À
l'ombre
de
ce
vieux
chêne
As
they
lay
me
'neath
the
green,
green
grass
of
home...
Alors
qu'ils
me
déposent
sous
l'herbe
verte,
verte
de
la
maison...
