Dick Justice - Henry Lee songtekst

Je score:

"Get down, get down, little Henry Lee, and stay all 
night with me.
The very best lodging I can afford will be fare 
better'n thee."
"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'n thee."

She leaned herself against a fence, just for a kiss or 
two;
With a little pen-knife held in her hand, she plugged 
him through and through.
"Come all you ladies in the town, a secret for me keep,
With a diamond ring held on my hand I'll never will 
forsake."

"Some take him by his lily-white hand, some take him by 
his feet.
We'll throw him in this deep, deep well, more than one 
Lie there, lie there, loving Henry Lee, till the flesh 
drops from your bones.
The girl you have in that merry green land still waits 
for your return."

"Fly down, fly down, you little bird, and alight on my 
right knee.
Your cage will be of purest gold, in deed of property."
"I can't fly down, or I won't fly down, and alight on 
your right knee.
A girl would murder her own true love would kill a 
little bird like me."

"If I had my bend and bow, my arrow and my string,
I'd pierce a dart so nigh your heart your wobble would 
be in vain."
"If you had your bend and bow, your arrow and your 
string,
I'd fly away to the merry green land and tell what I 
have seen."
