Tale of Poor Henry - Saline Grace

Tale of Poor Henry Lyrics

Henry never rested or felt some peace
To attain his goals he fought the time
His short-lived wife was deeply grieved
Henry feared the journeys own rewardIt took his heart away
And every precious day
It took his life away
Yes, every single dayEarly morning, a forsaken door
Holding a six-gun his carcass was found
No one mourned and no one thought about it
For all his life he ran away, the goddamn foolIt took his heart away
And every precious day
It took his life away
Yes, every single day
