Tale Of Poor Henry
Saline Grace

Henry never rested or felt some peace

To attain his goals he fought the time

His short-lived wife was deeply grieved

Henry feared the journeys own reward

It took his heart away

And every precious day

It took his life away

Yes, every single day

Early morning, a forsaken door

Holding a six-gun his carcass was found

No one mourned and no one thought about it

For all his life he ran away, the goddamn fool

It took his heart away

And every precious day

It took his life away

Yes, every single day
