Was he really Lambert Simnel
A mere pretender to the throne
A Yorkist prince it has been claimed
And the truth it is still not known

He was crowned in Dublin city
With Tudor tales confusion reigned
Edward, Lambert and young Richard
Are those he has been named

Who was the Dublin king
The Dublin king to proclaim
Who was the Dublin king
What was his real name

So Lincoln led his rebel army
Across to the English shore
Lord Lovell then announcing that
The true king they would restore

Who was the Dublin king
The Dublin king to proclaim
Who was the Dublin king
What was his real name

At Stoke there was wholesale slaughter
The Dublin king perished there
To then live on as Lambert Simnel
A name that came from nowhere

Who was the Dublin king
The Dublin king to proclaim
Who was the Dublin king
What was his real name

Who was the Dublin king
The Dublin king to proclaim
Who was the Dublin king
What was his real name
