Ay, Round the Corner |
A-round the corner, ooh-ooh, |
Beneath the berry tree |
A-long the footpath, behind the bush |
Looking for Henry Lee. |
A-round the corner, ooh-ooh, |
Beneath the berry tree |
A-long the footpath, behind the bush |
Looking for Henry Lee. |
(A-round the corner ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh) |
Tonight all the folks will cut the corn |
(Cut the corn) |
Tonight I’ll be glad that I was born |
(I was born) |
For my Henry Lee I’ll see |
He’ll be cuttin' corn with me |
And we’ll meet 'neath the bitter berry tree |
A-round the corner, ooh-ooh, |
Beneath the berry tree |
A-long the footpath, behind the bush |
Looking for Henry Lee. |
(A-round the corner ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh) |
Tonight all the stars are shining bright |
(Shining Bright) |
Tonight all the cornfields are a sight |
(Are a Sight) |
I have reached the meeting spot |
But my Henry Lee has not |
And I wonder can it be that he forgot |
A-round the corner, ooh-ooh, |
Beneath the berry tree |
A-long the footpath, behind the bush |
Looking for Henry Lee. |
(A-round the corner ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh) |
Tonight as the moon begins to sink |
(Begins to sink) |
Tonight there are footsteps that I think |
(Which I think) |
Will at last bring him to me |
My beloved Henry Lee |
But I don’t see why so late he has to be |
Oh Henry Lee why did you make me wait |
(Make me wait) |
I’m late 'cos I had another date |
(Another date) |
It was plain for me to see |
He’d been keepin' company |
With another girl beneath another tree |
A-round the corner, ooh-ooh, |
Beneath the berry tree |
Here on the footpath, behind the bush |
Looking for Henry Lee. |
(A-round the corner ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh) |
I told my Henry Lee to go away |
(Far away) |
But now I’m sad because he didn’t stay |
(Didn't stay) |
And tonight in case that he |
Might come searchin' round for me |
I’ll be sittin' 'neath the bitter berry tree. |
A-round the corner, ooh-ooh, |
Beneath the berry tree |
Here on the footpath, behind the bush |
Looking for Henry Lee. |
