 Struggling with Kings? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

Now they lay his body down 
Sad old men who run this town 
I still recall the way 
He led the charge and saved the day 
Blue blood and rain 
I can hear the bugle playin' 

[Chorus:] 
We seen the last of Good King Richard 
Ring out the past his name lives on 
Roll out the bones and raise up your pitcher 
Raise up your glass to Good King John 

While he plundered far and wide 
All his starving children cried 
And though we sung his fame 
We all went hungry just the same 
He meant to shine 
To the end of the line 

[Chorus:] 
We seen the last of Good King Richard 
Ring out the past his name lives on 
Roll out the bones and raise up your pitcher 
Raise up your glass to Good King John
