The Civil Wars
Oh Henry (Alternate Version)
[Verse 1: Joy Williams with John Paul White]
Oh, the grass is green
Everywhere but under me
Or so it seems
Boy, if you're smart
You'll know you'll only have my heart
'Til death do us part
[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Oh Henry, have you got something to tell me?
'Cause everybody's been saying
You been running around
Oh Henry, I know you wouldn't hurt me
And you should know that we don't need
One more grave in this town
Oh, one more grave in this town
[Verse 2: Joy Williams with John Paul White]
Oh, you and I both know
That at the end of that forbidden road
There's a six-foot hole
[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Oh Henry, have you got something to tell me?
'Cause everybody's been saying
You been running around
Oh Henry, I know you wouldn't hurt me
And you should know that we don't need
One more grave in this town
[Bridge: Joy Williams with John Paul White]
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
[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Oh Henry, you got something to tell me?
'Cause everybody's been saying
You been running around
Oh Henry, I know you wouldn't hurt me
And you should know that we don't need
One more grave in this town
Oh, one more grave in this town
Oh, one more grave in this town
