Around the corner
Beneath the berry tree
Along the footpath, behind the bush
Looking for Henry Lee

Around the corner,
Beneath the berry tree
Along the footpath, behind the bush
Looking for Henry Lee

Tonight all the stars are shining bright
Tonight all the cornfields are a sight
I have reached the meeting spot
But my Henry Lee has not
And I wonder can it be that he forgot

Around the corner
Beneath the berry tree
Along the footpath, behind the bush
Looking for Henry Lee

Tonight as the moon begins to shine
Tonight Henry Lee said he'd be mine
I would like top know my faith
But my Henry Lee is late
And I wonder could it be he changed his mind

Around the corner (around the corner)
Beneath the berry tree (beneath the tree)
Along the footpath, behind the bush
Looking for Henry Lee

I told my Henry Lee to go away
But now I'm sad because he didn't stay
And tomorrow night if he
Comes looking around for me
I'll be sittin' 'neath the bitter berry tree

Around the corner
Beneath the berry tree
Along the footpath, behind the bush
Looking for Henry Lee
Looking for Henry Lee
Looking for Henry Lee
Looking for Henry Lee
Looking for Henry Lee
Looking for Henry Lee
