"Green, Green Grass of Home", written by Claude "Curly" Putman Jr., and first recorded by American singer Johnny Darrell as his debut single in 1965, is a country song made popular by Porter Wagoner the same year, when it reached No. 4 on the Country chart. It was also recorded by Jerry Lee Lewis, who included it in his album Country Songs for City Folks (later re-issued as All Country). Welsh singer Tom Jones learned the song from Lewis' version and, in 1966, he had a No. 1 hit in several countries with it.
