Death of Queen Jane

Lyrics

Queen Jane lay in labour
 Full nine days or more
 Till her women were so tired
 They could no longer bare
 They could no longer bare
 Good women, good women
 Good women as ye be
 Will you open my right side
 And find my baby
 And find my baby
 Oh no cried the women
 That's a thing that never can be
 We will send for King Henry
 And hear what he may say
 And hear what he may say
 King Henry was sent for
 King Henry did appear
 Saying, "What are ail you making?
 Your eyes they look so dim
 Your eyes they look so dim"
 King Henry, King Henry
 Will you do one thing for me?
 That's to open my right side
 And find my baby
 And find my baby
 "Oh no," cried King Henry
 "That's a thing I'll never could do
 If I lose the flower of England
 I shall lose the branch too
 I shall lose the branch too"
 There was fiddling and dancing
 On the day the babe was born
 But poor Queen Jane beloved
 Lay cold as the stone
 Lay cold as the stone
