Get down, get down, little Henry Lee
And stay all night with me
You won't find a girl in this damn world
Who can compare with me
And the wind it howled, the wind it blew
La, la-la-la, la, la-la-lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
ย
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
Well, I love her better than thee
And the wind it howled, the wind it blew
La, la-la-la, la, la-la-lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
ย
I saw her lean against a fence
As for a kiss I sued
But with a little penknife held in her hand
She plugged him through and through
And the wind it howled, the wind it blew
La, la-la-la, la, la-la-lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
ย
Come take him by his lily-white hands
Come take him by his feet
And throw him in that deep, deep well
That's more than one hundred feet
And the wind it howled, the wind it blew
La, la-la-la, la, la-la-lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
ย
Lie there, lie there, little Henry Lee
'Til the flesh drops from your bones
For the girl you have in that merry green land
Can wait forever for you to come home
And the wind it howled, the wind it blew
La, la-la-la, la, la-la-lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
La, la-la-la, la, la-la-lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee

Thank you. I'm glad that's over. Oh, shit. Can I
Introduce my friends Lisa and Dan to the stage, please?
Um, this is one of the first songs that we did when we were asked
To do this tour, and I wanted to do a song with Lisa and a song with
Dan. And we, we did a song each together around his kitchen table
On his birthday. We did this song, and we did "Deanna" in the lounge
Room, and then Lisa sort of went home, and me and Dan sort of stayed
Up. I ended up sleeping on the couch that night. It was great
You ready?
Yeah
One, two, two, three, two, two...
