Henry Lee - Dick Justice/Preston Young[00:00:00]
"Get down get down little Henry Lee [00:00:01]
And stay all night with me [00:00:06]
The very best lodging[00:00:13]
I can afford will be fare better'n thee "[00:00:15]
"I can't get down and I won't get down [00:00:23]
And stay all night with thee [00:00:27]
For the girl I have in that merry green land [00:00:32]
I love far better'n thee "[00:00:37]
She leaned herself against a fence[00:00:44]
Just for a kiss or two;[00:00:48]
With a little pen-knife held in her hand [00:00:53]
She plugged him through and through [00:00:58]
"Come all you ladies in the town [00:01:03]
A secret for me keep [00:01:09]
With a diamond ring held on my hand[00:01:13]
I'll never will forsake "[00:01:18]
"Some take him by his lily-white hand [00:01:24]
Some take him by his feet [00:01:29]
We'll throw him in this deep deep well [00:01:34]
More than one hundred feet [00:01:39]
Lie there lie there loving Henry Lee [00:01:44]
Till the flesh drops from your bones [00:01:49]
The girl you have in that merry green land[00:01:53]
Still waits for your return "[00:01:58]
"Fly down fly down you little bird [00:02:05]
And alight on my right knee [00:02:10]
Your cage will be of purest gold [00:02:16]
In deed of property "[00:02:21]
"I can't fly down or I won't fly down [00:02:25]
And alight on your right knee [00:02:30]
A girl would murder her own true love[00:02:35]
Would kill a little bird like me "[00:02:40]
"If I had my bend and bow [00:02:46]
My arrow and my string [00:02:51]
I'd pierce a dart so nigh your heart your[00:02:56]
Wobble would be in vain "[00:03:01]
"If you had your bend and bow [00:03:05]
Your arrow and your string [00:03:10]
I'd fly away to the merry green land[00:03:15]
And tell what I have seen "[00:03:20]
