Lyrics
Six dukes went a-fishing Down by the seaside One spied a dead body Come floating in the tide And the one said to the other These words I heard them say: “It's the Royal Duke of Grantham That the tide has washed away” And they took him up to London To the place where was known; From there back to Grantham The place where he was born And they took out his bowels And they bound up his feet And they 'balmed his body With roses so sweet Six Dukes went before him Nine raised him from the ground Twelve Lords followed after In their black mourning gowns So black was their mourning So white were the wands So yellow were the flamboys They carried in their hands He now lies 'twixt two towers He now lies in cold clay And the Royal Queen of Grantham Went weeping away
