A lady so brave and so strong
Her husband the Earl of Mercia
He treated her terribly wrong
She's a lady
She's a lady
She rode naked on horseback
To stop him from his tax increase
But people in town closed their curtains
Than prison for living in peace
*She's a lady
She's a lady
She's a lady, Lady Godiva
The hero of Coventry
L-L-Lady Lady Godiva
She rode into history
Then sneaking a glance through the window
Was a guy they called Peeping Tom
He caught a glimpse and was blinded
Curiosity sometimes is wrong
*(repeat)
People liked Lady Godiva
Respectfully looking away
They honoured incredible courage
Her legend lives until today
*(repeat, repeat)
Her name was Lady Godiva A lady so brave and so strong Her husband the Earl of Mercia He treated her terribly wrong She's a lady She's a lady She rode naked on horseback To stop him from his tax increase But people in town closed their curtains Than prison for living in peace *She's a lady She's a lady She's a lady, Lady Godiva The hero of Coventry L-L-Lady Lady Godiva She rode into history Then sneaking a glance through the window Was a guy they called Peeping Tom He caught a glimpse and was blinded Curiosity sometimes is wrong *(repeat) People liked Lady Godiva Respectfully looking away They honoured incredible courage Her legend lives until today *(repeat, repeat) Explain Request ×
