Ay-Round the Corner(Bee-Hind the Bush) Lyrics
A-Round the Corner - Jo Stafford
Written by：Josef Marais
A round the corner ooh ooh
Beneath the berry tree
A long the footpath behind the bush
Looking for Henry lee
A round the corner ooh ooh
Beneath the berry tree
A long the footpath behind the bush
Looking for Henry lee
A round the corner
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Tonight all the folks will cut the corn
Cut the corn
Tonight I'll be glad that I was born
I was born
For my Henry lee I'll see
He'll be cutting corn with me
And we'll meet neath the bitter berry tree
A round the corner ooh ooh
Beneath the berry tree
A long the footpath behind the bush
Looking for Henry lee
A round the corner
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Tonight all the stars are shining bright
Shining bright
Tonight all the cornfields are a sight
Are a sight
I have reached the meeting spot
But my Henry lee has not
And I wonder can it be that he forgot
A round the corner ooh ooh
Beneath the berry tree
A long the footpath behind the bush
Looking for Henry lee
A round the corner
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Tonight as the moon begins to sink
Begins to sink
Tonight there are footsteps that I think
Which I think
Will at last bring him to me
My beloved Henry lee
But I don't see why so late he has to be
Oh Henry lee why did you make me wait
Make me wait
I'm late cos I had another date
Another date
It was plain for me to see
He'd been keeping company
With another girl beneath another tree
A round the corner ooh ooh
Beneath the berry tree
Here on the footpath behind the bush
Looking for Henry lee
A round the corner
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
I told my Henry lee to go away
Far away
But now I'm sad because he didn't stay
Didn't stay
And tonight in case that he
Might come searching round for me
I'll be sitting neath the bitter berry tree
A round the corner ooh ooh
Beneath the berry tree
Here on the footpath behind the bush
Looking for Henry lee
