That Noble King (Version Two) Lyrics
His body lying battered now the battle has ended
Stripped of his armour that looked so splendid
A once proud King in his armour with gold
A tale of treachery to be told
Thrown over a horse and then carried away
Taken to Leicester to be put on display
Buried hastily by the Grey Friars
Under the tiles of their church choir
His remains were not thrown into the Soar
That noble King of the white boar
That noble King of the white boar
That noble King of the white boar
Stripped of his armour that looked so splendid
A tale of treachery to be told
Taken to Leicester to be put on display
Under the tiles of their church choir
That noble King of the white boar
That noble King of the white boar
That noble King of the white boar
