A song featuring eels
| Green and Yeller (aka Henry My Son)
Where have you been all the day, Henry my son?
Where have you been all the day, my little one?
In the woods, dear mother.
In the woods, dear mother.
Mother be quick I got to be sick and lay me down to die.
What did you do in the woods all day, Henry my son?
What did you do in the woods all day, my little one?
Ate, dear mother.
Ate, dear mother.
Mother be quick I got to be sick and lay me down to die.
What did you eat in the woods all day, Henry my son?
What did you eat in the woods all day my pretty one?
Eels, dear mother.
Eels, dear mother.
Mother be quick I got to be sick and lay me down to die.
What color were those eels, Henry my boy?
What color were those eels, my pride and joy?
Green and yeller.
Green and yeller.
Mother be quick I got to be sick and lay me down to die.
Those eels were snakes, Henry my son.
Those eels were snakes, my pretty one.
Urgh, dear mother.
Urgh, dear mother.
Mother be quick I got to be sick and lay me down to die.
What color flowers do you want, Henry my boy?
What color do you want, my pride and joy?
Green and yeller.
Green and yeller.
Mother be quick I got to be sick and lay me down to die.
Note: Reader Richard Chisholm writes: "Green and Yeller is a version of the English ballad "Lord Randall," which appears in virtually any collection of 15th century English popular ballads. "Black eels and eel broth" caused his demise in that version." |
