Oh the grass is green
|
Everywhere but under me
|
Or so it seems
|
|
Got a wedding band
|
In the name of a wandering man
|
I love the best I can
|
|
Oh Henry, have you got something to tell me?
|
'Cause everybody's been sayin
|
You been runnin' around
|
Oh Henry, I know you wouldn't hurt me
|
Don't you know that we don't need
|
One more grave in this town
|
|
Boy if you're smart
|
You'll know you'll only have my heart
|
'til death do us part
|
|
Oh you and I both know
|
That at the end of that forbidden road
|
There's a six-foot hole
|
|
Oh Henry, have you got something to tell me?
|
'Cause everybody's been sayin
|
You been runnin' around
|
Oh Henry, I know you wouldn't hurt me
|
Don't you know that we don't need
|
One more grave in this town
|
|
When we wed, we said forever ever and a day
|
The whole town heard you promise to be true
|
So boy you're gonna only give your gypsy heart to me
|
If it's the last thing you do
|
|
Oh Henry, have you got something to tell me?
|
'Cause everybody's been sayin
|
You been runnin' around
|
Oh Henry, I know you wouldn't hurt me
|
Don't you know that we don't need
|
One more grave in this town
|
Oh one more grave in this town
|
|
Oh the grass is green
|
Everywhere but under me
|
