Description
Written in Magalluf, Mallorca - August 2008. Humty Dumpty we are told was the name given to a powerful cannon used by King Charles' men in the English civil war. It was used in the siege of Colchester in 1648. For years I thought Humpty Dumpty was an egg!!!

Lyrics
Humty Dumpty . written Aug./Sept 2008.
by John Jenkins.
1. Pack a little powder not too lumpy,
Sound a little louder hot and jumpy,
Should you ever hear me call,
Catch me when I start to fall.
2.Firmly on the side of the royalist forces,
Fighting for the king, his men, and horses
Cromwell tinged with ill repute,
Fairfax wins today’s dispute.
I’m Humpty Dumpty, everybody knows my name,
I’m Humpty Dumpty, I’m the one who gets the blame,
For cracking up and falling down,
Breaking as I hit the ground.
I’m Humpty Dumpty, you can see me everywhere,
I’m Humpty Dumpty, sitting in my easy chair,
From Colchester my fame has grown,
The biggest egg the world has known.
3.Blown to the ground so hard and bumpy,
Not another sound from Humty Dumpty,
Parliament has won the day,
Roundhead rule is hear to stay.
Break
I’m Humpty Dumpty, you can see me everywhere,
I’m Humpty Dumpty, sitting in my easy chair,
From Colchester my fame has grown,
The biggest egg the world has known.
4. I’m keeping my place in English history,
The human egg remains a mystery,
Good St.Mary’s at the wall,
This is where I take my fall.
Repeat full chorus.
