Years ago I worked in a Medieval style dinner theater, psst King Henry's favorite tavern - Rosie Rumpe's Regal Dumpe The 6 wives of Henry Was one of our opening songs! Over the years I'd sing them randomly during tedious tasks or whatever well couple of weeks ago i started like always but completely forgot how it started .. oh no no not cool. Google no help yet,, Not an easy thing to find evidently. Ended up here then suddenly remembered, almost just drawing a blank on part of 5th wife eh.. maybe some one else will pop up that knows. Well here it is mostly" anyway :) Oh the 1st wife of Henry let us start this song The 1st was Kate of Aragon. But the 1st wife of Henry found that in due course Kate's fate divorce Oh the 1st was kate of Aragon Oh the 2nd wife of Henry started talk of sin Ann Bolyn , Kate's fate divorce oh the 1st was Kate of Aragon Now the 2nd wife of 3 years after wedded Ann was beheaded Ann Bolyn, Kate's fate divorce, Oh the 1st was Kate of Aragon Oh the 3rd wife of Henry, I'll bear a son she swore! > Kind Jane Seymour < (as the 5 golden rings part) Ann was beheaded Ann Bolyn Kate's fate divorce Oh the 1st was Kate of Aragon Oh the 4th wife of Henry was ugly one could see Sober Ann of Cleaves, > Kind Jane Seymour < Ann was beheaded Ann Bolyn Kate's fate divorce Oh the 1st was Kate of Aragon Now the 4th wife of Henry ... (blah blah something sorry) Sober Ann of Cleaves > Kind Jane Seymour < Etc. *Katherine Howard can't remember all just that "Howard was depowered" but hopefully will soon Oh the 6th wife of Henry was destined to go far, tender Catherine Parr, Howard was depowered, Sober Ann of Cleaves, > Kind Jane Seymour < Ann was beheaded Ann Bolyn Kate's fate divorce Oh the 1st was Kate of Aragon Now the 6th wife of Henry oddly out survived him. (At the end Half spoken as if surprised ) *every one acts amazed* Saying "What?! Then in unison "She survived him!? " (Then all at once, hands in prayer all sing) Hallelujah Hallelujah Hal-le-lu-jah! Howard was depowered Sober Ann of Cleaves > Kind Jane Seymour < Ann was beheaded Ann Bolyn Kate's fate divorce Oh the 1st was Kate of Aragon
