Come in, Come in, my Love Henry, stay with me this night.
And you shall have both candle and coal, my fire burning bright.
Oh oh oh my fire burning bright.

Well, I won’t come in, I can’t come in, I won’t come in at all.
There’s a lady ten times fairer than you waiting in Lord Barnett’s Hall.
And then he bended on her snow white pillow
Give her a kissed so sweet
She drew her penknife in her hand - wounded him full deep.
Oh oh oh she wounded him full deep.

And then she picked him up by his long yellow hair
Also by his feet
She threw him in her cool, draw well full fifty fathoms deep.

Lie there, lie there, Love Henry, than she cried,
I know you will not swim
That lady ten times fairer than me will never see you again.
Oh oh oh she’ll never see you again.

Fly down, fly down, you pretty little bird.
Light upon my knee
Oh no, a girl who’d kill her own hearts love
Might hurt a little bird like me.

If I had my arrow in my hand
Bow on a tuneful string
I’d shoot a dart straight through your heart
You’d no longer sing.
Oh oh oh and you’d no longer sing.

Come in, Come in, my Love Henry, stay with me this night.
And you shall have both candle and coal, my fire burning bright.
Oh oh oh my fire burning bright.
