Where ahve you been all day, Henry my son?
Where have you been all day, my beloved one?
Away in the meadow, away in the meadow
Make my bed, I've a pain in my head and I want to lie down.

What did you have to eat, Henry my son
What did you have to eat, my beloved one?
Poson beans, poison beans,
Make my bed, I've a pain in my head and I want to lie down.

What colour were them beans, Henry my son
What colour were them beans, my beloved one?
Green and yellow, green and yellow
Make my bed, I've a pain in my head and I want to lie down.
