2
Get down, get down, little Henry Lee
3
And stay all night with me
4
You won't find a girl in this damn world
5
That will compare with me
6
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
7
La la la la la
8
La la la la lee
9
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
10
I can't get down and I won't get down
11
And stay all night with thee
12
For the girl I have in that merry green land
13
I love far better than thee
14
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
15
La la la la la
16
La la la la lee
17
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
18
She leaned herself against a fence
19
Just for a kiss or two
20
And with a little pen-knife held in her hand
21
She plugged him through and through
22
And the wind did roar and the wind did moan
23
La la la la la
24
La la la la lee
25
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
26
Come take him by his lilly-white hands
27
Come take him by his feet
28
And throw him in this deep deep well
29
Which is more than one hundred feet
30
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
31
La la la la la
32
La la la la lee
33
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
34
Lie there, lie there, little Henry Lee
35
Till the flesh drops from your bones
36
For the girl you have in that merry green land
37
Can wait forever for you to come home
38
And the wind did howl and the wind did moan
39
La la la la la
40
La la la la lee
41
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
