Oh the grass is green
Everywhere but under me
Or so it seemsGot a wedding band
In the name of a wandering man
I love the best I canOh 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 townBoy if you're smart
You know you'll only have my heart
'til death do us partOh you and I both know
That at the end of that forbidden road
There's a six-foot holeOh 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 townWhen 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 doOh 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 townOh the grass is green
Everywhere but under me
