LYRICS
(Chorus)
Henry, Henry, Henry
Had so many wives that had to die
Henry, Henry, Henry
Had so many
Only one survived
Six wives in all
Oh the things they could do if they hadn’t married Henry
That was their downfall!
(Verse 1)
The first was Katherine by name
She was from Aragon in Spain
Oh, poor Kate!
She married Arthur, Henry’s bro
And when he died loved Henry so
But had to wait!
He took her as his lawful wife,
But that caused her a lot of strife
She couldn’t have a son you see
Their only child was Mary!
REPEAT CHORUS
(Verse 2)
Most infamous was Anne Boleyn
But from the start she couldn’t win
Well, of course!
She was attractive to the king
Though wouldn’t love unless a queen
So a divorce!
She promised Henry a male heir
But had Elizabeth, with red hair
“I have a little neck”, she said
Right before they chopped her head
REPEAT CHORUS
(Verse 3)
Jane Seymour was the next to wed
Betrothed the day Anne lost her head
No one did mourn!
She loved the king and tried with might
And soon much to the king’s delight
A son was born!
Prince Edward was a true blessing
Long-awaited by the king
But soon afterwards Jane would die
And poor Henry was left to cry…
REPEAT CHORUS:
(Verse 4)
Anna of Cleves from Germany
Would be the next wife for Henry
She would not last!
A Lutheran princess though she be
He didn’t like her face, you see
Annulment fast!
He nicknamed her the “Flanders Mare” -
Divorced her without a care
She stayed in England and became
“The King’s Beloved Sister” in name!
REPEAT CHORUS;
(Verse 5)
Henry would be wed again
To a cousin of Anne Boleyn
Kathryn Howard!
A “rose without a thorn”, said he
But her affair forced her to be
Sent to the Tower!
Culpeper was her cousin dear
And her love, so it appeared
This was high treason and so Kate
Upon the block did meet her fate!
REPEAT CHORUS:
(Verse 6)
And now we sing of Katherine Parr
The most kindly of wives by far
Number Six!
Cared for Elizabeth and Ed,
And old Henry’s ulcered leg
He was sick!
After the king had passed away
She got remarried right away
But in a year she left this earth
Had some trouble giving birth…
FINAL CHORUS:
Two Annes, Three Kates
And one precious Jane
But they had to marry Henry!
And it sealed their fate!
