Kings and Queens of England (Trumpet Tune, Purcell)

Kings and Queens of England
By Richard Perlmutter

First came William, then a second William

Henry, Stephen then a second Hank

Next was Richard called the Lion Hearted

Evil John, then one more Henry rose to the rank

Three more Ed’s then Richard came to power

Then three Hanks one went to London Tower

Two more Edwards, Richard

And another couple Henry’s

All together Kings and Queens of England

Next came Edward, Jane and Bloody Mary

Then Elizabethan was the style

Next King James, two Chucks and one more Jimmy

Then together Will and Mary ruled for a while

Then reigned Anne, four Georges and a Willy

Queen Victoria lived near Picadilly

Then two Eds, three Georges
and Elizabeth the Second

All together Kings and Queens of England

All together Kings and Queens of England
