The George And The Dragon Lyrics - Hermans Hermits

We met at the Inn called The George and Dragon 

Lest you forget my dear 

We drank a toast at The George and Dragon 

With the dragon breathing fire in me beer 

Yea, verily I did thee beseach thee 

To tarry with me ah, but there 

You said a knight of the old round table 

Could be short of nothing but a square. 

Could a square be there to the rescue? 

Drive yon knave away? 

Was it fate or love now I ask you 

Only you can say 

Sadly I stand with me heart heavy laden 

Oh what a knight in shining armor, I. 

To win the hand of this fair young maiden 

I would gladly lay me down and die
