The List of the Dead Lyrics

SEVERAL BATTLES IN THIS SONG
THE LIST OF THE DEAD GOES ON AND ON
FIRST ST ALBANS FOURTEEN FIFTY FIVE
THE DUKE OF YORK HE DID STRIVE
AT NORTHAMPTON THE KING WAS BETRAYED
WITH LORD GREY OF RUTHIN A DEAL WAS MADE
BY THE EARL OF MARCH AND WARWICK TOO
IT ALLOWED THEIR TROOPS TO BREAK THROUGH
SEVERAL BATTLES IN THIS SONG
THE LIST OF THE DEAD GOES ON AND ON
BLORE HEATH IN FOURTEEN FIFTY NINE
THE EARL OF SALISBURY'S BATTLE LINE
AT WAKEFIELD A DUKE LOST HIS HEAD
AND SO MORE NOBLE BLOOD WAS SHED
AT MICKLEGATE BAR HIS HEAD ON A SPIKE

WITH SOME OTHERS SUCH A DREADFUL SIGHT
SECOND ST ALBANS 1461 LORD BONVILLE EXECUTED
FERRYBRIDGE MARCH 1461 LORD FITZWALTER MORTALLY WOUNDED
TOWTON MARCH 1461 SIR ANDREW TROLLOPE KILLED
HEDGELEY MOOR APRIL 1464 SIR RALPH PERCY KILLED
HEXHAM MAY 1464 THE DUKE OF SOMERSET EXECUTED
SEVERAL BATTLES IN THIS SONG
THE LIST OF THE DEAD GOES ON AND ON
LUDFORD BRIDGE FOURTEEN FIFTY NINE
TO FIGHT THE KING THEY DID DECLINE
AT MORTIMERS CROSS THREE SUNS WERE SEEN
FOR THE UNEDUCATED WHAT DID THIS MEAN
THE EARL OF MARCH DECLARED “ A GOOD SIGN”
FOR THE THREE SONS OF YORK AT THAT TIME
SEVERAL BATTLES IN THIS SONG
THE LIST OF THE DEAD GOES ON AND ON
SEVERAL BATTLES IN THIS SONG
THE LIST OF THE DEAD GOES ON AND ON AND ON AND ON AND ON
