With Her Head Tucked Underneath Her Arm - Stanley Holloway/Margaret Whiting[00:00:00]
Written by:RP Weston/Bert Lee/Harris Weston[00:00:01]
In the tower of London large as life[00:00:09]
The ghost of Anne Boleyn walks they declare[00:00:14]
For Anne Boleyn was once King Henry's wife[00:00:19]
Until he made the headsman bob her hair[00:00:24]
Ah yes he did her wrong long years ago[00:00:29]
And she comes up at night to tell him soooo[00:00:35]
With her head[00:00:41]
Tucked[00:00:43]
Underneath her arm[00:00:44]
She walks the bloody tower[00:00:47]
With her head[00:00:52]
Tucked[00:00:54]
Underneath her arm[00:00:55]
At the midnight hour[00:00:58]
She comes to haunt King Henry[00:01:03]
She means giving him what for[00:01:05]
Gadzook she's going to tell him off[00:01:08]
For having spilt her gore[00:01:11]
And just in case the headsman[00:01:14]
Wants to give her an encore[00:01:16]
She has her head tucked underneath her arm[00:01:21]
With her head[00:01:27]
Tucked[00:01:30]
Underneath her arm[00:01:31]
She walks the bloody tower[00:01:34]
With her head[00:01:39]
Tucked[00:01:41]
Underneath her arm[00:01:42]
At the midnight hour[00:01:44]
Along the draughty corridors[00:01:50]
For miles and miles she goes[00:01:53]
She often catches cold poor thing[00:01:55]
It's cold there when it blows[00:01:59]
And it's awfully awkward for the queen[00:02:03]
To have to blow her nose[00:02:06]
With her head tucked underneath her arm[00:02:10]
Sometimes gay King Henry gives a spread[00:02:22]
For all his gals and pals and ghostly crew[00:02:27]
The headsman carves the joint and cuts the bread[00:02:31]
Then in comes Anne Boleyn to queer the do[00:02:37]
She holds her head up with a wild war whoop[00:02:42]
And Henry cries[00:02:48]
Don't drop it in the soup[00:02:50]
With her head[00:02:54]
Tucked[00:02:57]
Underneath her arm[00:02:58]
She walks the bloody tower[00:03:01]
With her head[00:03:06]
Tucked[00:03:08]
Underneath her arm[00:03:09]
At the midnight hour[00:03:12]
The sentries think that it's a football[00:03:17]
That she carries in[00:03:20]
And when they've had a few they shout[00:03:22]
Is Arsnal going to win[00:03:26]
They think it's Alec James[00:03:29]
Instead of poor old Ann Boleyn[00:03:32]
With her head tucked underneath her arm[00:03:36]
With her head[00:03:43]
Tucked[00:03:45]
Underneath her arm[00:03:47]
She walks the bloody tower[00:03:49]
With her head[00:03:54]
Tucked[00:03:56]
Underneath her arm[00:03:58]
At the midnight hour[00:04:00]
One night she caught King Henry[00:04:05]
He was in the canteen bar[00:04:08]
Said he[00:04:11]
Are you Jane Seymore[00:04:12]
Anne Boleyn or Catherine Parr[00:04:14]
How the sweet san fairy Ann[00:04:18]
Do I know who you are[00:04:21]
With your head tucked underneath your arm[00:04:26]
