Henry Lee

Am

1. Get down, get down, little Henry Lee

A7

And stay all night with me

Dm

You won't find a girl in this damn world

That will compare with me

R: And the wind did howl and the wind did blow

La la la la la

Am

La la la la lee

A little bird lit down on Henry Lee

2. I can't get down and I won't get down

And stay all night with thee

For the girl I have in that merry green land

I love far better than thee

R: And the wind did howl...

3. She leaned herself against a fence

Just for a kiss or two

And with a little pen-knife held in her hand

She plugged him through and through

R: And the wind did howl...

4. Come take him by his lilly-white hands

Come take him by his feet

And throw him in this deep deep well

Which is more than one hundred feet

R: And the wind did howl...

5. Lie there, lie there, little Henry Lee

Till the flesh drops from your bones

For the girl you have in that merry green land

Can wait forever for you to come home

R: And the wind did howl...
