The Duke of York's Wife
She saw her last son for the very last time
Though she didn't know it so soon he would die
Killed in battle fighting so bravely
And his body stripped naked for everyone to see
A twisted spine Henry Tudor then could see
When he came to see her he had plans for his life
From Portugal or Spain perhaps a new wife
From Portugal or Spain a new queen as his wife
She took communion for the very last time
She surely knew that very soon she would die
To join her husband who fought so bravely
He was killed at Wakefield so very brutally
His head put on a spike at York for everyone to see
When Ludlow was ravaged she prayed for her life
For she was the proud Duke of York's wife
For she was the proud Duke of York's wife
Though she didn't know it so soon he would die
Killed in battle fighting so bravely
And his body stripped naked for everyone to see
A twisted spine Henry Tudor then could see
When he came to see her he had plans for his life
From Portugal or Spain perhaps a new wife
From Portugal or Spain a new queen as his wife
She took communion for the very last time
She surely knew that very soon she would die
To join her husband who fought so bravely
He was killed at Wakefield so very brutally
His head put on a spike at York for everyone to see
When Ludlow was ravaged she prayed for her life
For she was the proud Duke of York's wife
For she was the proud Duke of York's wife
