No matter where you may roam
You'll eventually miss the green grass of home
There's no escaping from your roots
No matter where you park your boots
It might be years before you get back
Home is not always where you hang your hat
You might call it that for awhile
Then you think of home with a smile
The green grass starts calling you
And getting home is all that'll do
The old hometown want look the same
Just like you it experienced change
The world outside want seem so big
Now that your roots can grow again
All of a sudden you start to feel whole
And being yourself becomes your goal
Realizing what you've been missing
The green grass you begin kissing
Breathing in it's smell and feeling it's touch
It's the one thing you've missed so much
Getting back you feel alive
And from now on you will strive
Strive to be the best you can
Your now a better woman or man
In your world it's not all about money
All of sudden monetary is funny
The meaning of life is clearer now
Remembering how grandpa showed you how
How you should bait your own hook
And how you should give life a second look
Don't be judgemental and sarcastic
And remember that life is like elastic
Stretch it to far and it will break
And good things come to those who wait
Your roots can grow where you may roam
But for them to grow ever so strong
They need the green green grass of home
