HENRY’S BODY IS BURIED
©1990 – music and words by John R. Black, ℗ 42nd Street Music Seattle
Well They say Henry’s body lies in that grave
Well they say Henry’s body cannot be saved
Well they say Henry’s body lies to my surprise in that cold dark grave
(Chorus:)
That’s what they say
That’s what they say
That’s what they say
That’s what they say
That’s what they say
That’s what they say
That’s what they say
That’s what they say
That’s what they say ay ay
Well they say Henry’s body is twelve feet down
Well they say Henry’s body don’t make no sound
Well they say Henry’s body’s there just a lyin in that ground
Ahhh, ahhh
Well they say Lizza’s lyin’ there a weepin so
Well they say Lizza doesn’t know where to go
Well they say Lizza’s lyin’ there sayin’ to beware today
(Chorus)
Well they say Henry’s body is twelve feet down
Well they say Henry’s body don’t make no sound
Well they say Henry’s bodies there just a lyin in that ground
Henry’s dead
Henry’s dead
Poor Henry
Well They say Henry’s body lies in that grave
Well they say Henry’s body cannot be saved
Well they say Henry’s body lies to my surprise in that cold dark grave
In that cold dark grave
