The Lord Protector

Edward the fourth lay dying
On his death bed they gathered round
And he named the lord protector
Whom he hoped would see his son crowned

He did name the lord protector
Whom the queen she had no faith
She feared the Duke of Gloucester
Would not keep her two boys safe

And so history is written
But Prince Edward was never crowned
And Richard a man of honour
In a sea of treason was drowned

He was named the lord protector
Whom the queen she had no faith
She feared the Duke of Gloucester
Would not keep her two boys safe
