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
