LONG AGO AND FAR AWAY
IN A KINGDOM BY THE SEA,
IN A CAVE LIVED A MIGHTY DRAGON,
HE WAS FIERCE AS HE COULD BE!!
HE ROARED ABOUT THE COUNTRY SIDE,
DESTROYING EVERYTHING,
HE FRIGHTENED ALL THE PEOPLE
AND THIS BADLY UPSET THE KING!!
CHORUS
BECAUSE THE DRAGON,
THE MIGHTY DRAGON,
HAD FIRE IN HIS BREATH.
THE DRAGON,
THE MIGHTY DRAGON,
WHO WILL FIGHT HIM TO THE DEATH?
2ND VERSE
THE KING HAD A BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER
WITH LIPS OF RUBY RED,
AND TO WHOEVER COULD SLAY THE DRAGON
HE’D GIVE HIS DAUGHTER TO WED.
A HANDSOME KNIGHT STEPPED FORWARD,
JUST A BRAVE AS HE COULD BE,
HE SAID TO THE KING
“FOR YOUR DAUGHTER, I’LL WIN THIS VICTORY!!
CHORUS
I’LL FIGHT THE DRAGON,
THE MIGHTY DRAGON,
WITH THE FIRE IN HIS BREATH!!
I’LL FIGHT THE DRAGON,
THE MIGHTY DRAGON,
AND WILL FIGHT HIM TO THE DEATH!!”
WITH SWORD AND SHIELD AND ARMOR
SECURELY ALL IN PLACE,
HE RODE HIS VALIANT STALLION
AT A VERY STEADY PACE.
3RD VERSE
SWIFTLY HE REACHED THE ENTRANCE
TO THE DRAGON’S FATAL LAIR,
KNOWING FULL WELL THE DRAGON
WOULD BE SLEEPING THERE.
WITH A MIGHTY ROAR LIKE THUNDER
CRAWLED THE DRAGON FROM HIS CAVE,
BUT THE FEARLESS KNIGHT
STOOD HIS GROUND,
HE WAS NOT AFRAID.
CHORUS
OH THE DRAGON,
THE MIGHTY DRAGON
HAD FIRE IN HIS BREATH,
CAN THE DRAGON,
THE MIGHTY DRAGON
BE BROUGHT DOWN
TO HIS DEATH?
WHO’S GOING TO WIN
THIS BATTLE,
WHO’S GOING TO WIN THIS FIGHT,
WILL IT BE THE MIGHTY DRAGON,
OR OUR FEARLESS KNIGHT?!!
