Don't Ya Tell Henry
Bob Dylan and the Band
The Basement Tapes
[Verse 1]
EI went down to the river on a Saturday morn,
A-lookin' around just to see who's born.
I found a little chicken down on his knees,
I went up and yelled to him,"Please, please, please!"
EHe said, "Don't ya tell Henry,
ADon't ya tell Henry,
B7Don't ya tell Henry,
N.C. E  
Apple's got your fly"
[Verse 2]
I Ewent down to the corner at a-half past ten,
I's lookin' around, I wouldn't say when.
I looked down low, I looked above,
And who did I see but the one I love.
She said, A"Don't ya tell Henry,
EDon't ya tell Henry,
BDon't ya tell Henry,
AN.C. E  
Apple's got your fly"
[Verse 3]
Now, I went Edown to the beanery at half past twelve,
EA-lookin' around just to see myself.
I Aspotted a horse and a donkey, too,
I Elooked for a cow and I saw me a few.
They said, A"Don't ya tell Henry,
EDon't ya tell Henry,
BDon't ya tell Henry,
AN.C. E  
Apple's got your fly"
ENow, I went down to the whorehouse the other night,
EA-lookin' around, it was outa sight.
I loAoked high and low for that big ol' tree,
I did go upstairs Ebut I didn't see nobody but me.
I said, "ADon't ya tell Henry,
EDon't ya tell Henry,
BDon't ya tell Henry,
AN.C. E  
Apple's got your fly"
