To the tune of "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear"

John and Eric

VERSE 1

King Tut had lived 3,000 years,

From our time all the way back.

He ruled all over the Egypt land,

When maturity he did lack.

 VERSE 2

For two centuries Egypt has been

A great power on the Earth.

At eighteen he was laid in his tomb,

Which was of enormous worth.

 VERSE 3

1922 was the year

When Tut’s tomb was discovered

By Englishman Howard Carter

The news media did hover.

VERSE 4

Museums wanted to display

This lovely mummy as a treasure,

Exact replicas have been made,

Their beauty without measure.
