The Oliver Cromwell Song
Spoken:
The most interesting thing
About King Charles the First is that
He was five feet six inches tall at the start
Of his reign, but only four foot eight inches
Tall at the end of it.
Because of...
Oliver Cromwell, Lord Protector
Of England
(Puritan)
Born in 1599 and died in 1658
(September)
Was at first
(Only)
MP for Huntingdon
(But then)
He led the Ironside Cavalry at
Marston Moor, in 1664 and won
Then he founded the New
Model Army
And praise be! beat the Cavaliers
At Naisby
And the King fled up North, like
A bat to the Scots.
Spoken:
But under the terms of John
Pimm's solomn league and
Covenant, the Scots handed King
Charles the First, over to...
Oliver Cromwell, Lord Protector
Of England
(And his warts)
Born in 1599 and died in 1658
(September)
But alas
(Oy Vay!)
Disagreement then broke out
(Between)
The Presbyterian Parliament
And the Military who meant
To have an independent bent.
And so...
The Second Civil War broke out
And the Roundhead ranks
