Англицкая народная пивная хороводная King Henry's court was a thirsty lot Quaffing half a million gallons each year A dozen brewers were kept on staff For to keep him supplied in beer Even his lowest men got four pints a day And to make sure of its aval He added one more to his brewing staff For to make him his favorite ale Corus:So here's toast to Henry the eighth Let's raise up a glass of cheer As we share with the king of olde england A love for our ale beer He kept his navy well supplied Whenever they sailed away With biscuits and flesh and fish and cheese And a gallon a man each day And in picardy, supplies fell short And the army went ten days dry He sent relief in with five hundred tonnes And ten brewhouses parked nearby Corus King Henry's stories have oft been told His legacy still survives From execution to rows with the church To the marrying of six wives But say what you will of this colourful king And all of his legendary tales Twas never a man in all england With more love for his beer and ale Corus Ну и послушать конечно это безобразие |
