You don't know who you're looking at; now have a look at me!
I'm a bit of a nob, I am, belong to royalty.
I'll tell you how it came about; I married Widow Burch
and I was King of England when I toddled out of church.
Outside the people started shouting: "Hip hooray!"
Said I: "Get down upon your knees, it's Coronation Day!"

Refr.
I'm Henery the Eighth, I am! Henery the Eighth, I am! I am!
I got married to the widow next door,
she's been married seven times before.
Ev'ry one was a Henery, she wouldn't have a Willie or a Sam.
I'm her eighth old man name Henery, I'm Henery the Eighth, I am!

I left the Duke of Cumberland, a pub up in the town.
Soon with one or two moochers I was holding up the Crown.
I sat upon the bucket that the carmen think their own;
Surrounded by my subjects I was sitting on the throne.
Out came the potman, saying: "Go on, home to bed!"
Said I: "Now say another word, and off'll go your head!"

Now at the Waxwork Exhibition not so long ago
I was sitting among the kings, I made a lovely show.
To good old Queen Elizabeth I shouted: "Wotcher Liz!"
While people poked my ribs and said: "I wonder who this is!"
One said: "It's Charley Peace!" And then I got the spike.
I shouted: "Show yer ignorance!" As waxy as you like.

The undertaker called and to the wife I heard him say:?
"Have you got any orders, mum? We're very slack today
I picked up number seven for ya, for the Golden Gate.
Let's have a pound upon account of Henery the Eighth."
Oh, when he measured me with half a yard of string?
I dropped upon me marrow bones and sang: "God Save the King!"
