Henry Lee (nick Cave Version) Lyrics - Nick Cave & The Bad Seed

Get down, get down little Henry Lee 

And stay all night with me 

You won't find a girl in this damn world 

That will compare with me 

And the wind did howl and the wind did blow 

La la la la la, la la la la lee 

A little bird lit down on Henry Lee 

 

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 

And the wind did howl and the wind did blow 

La la la la la, la la la la lee 

A little bird lit down on Henry Lee 

 

She leaned herself against a fence 

Just for a kiss or two 

And with a little pen-knife held in her hand 

Where she plugged him through and through 

And the wind did roar and the wind did moan 

La la la la la, la la la la lee 

A little bird lit down on Henry Lee 

 

Come take him by his lily white hands 

Come take him by his feet 

And throw him in this deep, deep well 

It's more than one hundred feet 

And the wind did howl and the wind did blow 

La la la la la, la la la la lee 

A little bird lit down on Henry Lee 

 

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 

And the wind did howl and the wind did moan 

La la la la la, la la la la lee 

A little bird lit down on Henry Lee 

 

La la la la la, la la la la lee 

A little bird lit down on Henry Lee 

La la la la la, la la la la lee 

A little bird lit down on Henry Lee 

La la la la la, la la la la lee 

A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
