Sir [C]Eglamore was a valiant knight
[F]Fa la lanky down [G]dilly
He [C]took up his sword and he went to fight
[F]Fa la lanky down [G]dilly
[C]As he rode o'er [F]hill and dale
All [C]armoured in a [G]coat of mail
[C] [F] [G] [C] [F]
Out [C]came a dragon from her den
[F]Fa la lanky down [G]dilly
That [C]killed god knows how many men
[F]Fa la lanky down [G]dilly
[C]When she saw Sir [F]Eglamore
You [C]should have heard that [G]dragon roar
[C] [F] [G] [C] [F] [G]
[C]When the trees began to shake
[F]Fa la lanky down [G]dilly
[C]Horse did tremble and man did quake
[F]Fa la lanky down [G]dilly
The [C]birds betook them [F]all to peep
It [C]would've made a [G]grown man weep
[C] [F] [G] [C] [F] [G]
[C]Twas all in vain it was to fear
[F]Fa la lanky down [G]dilly
[C]For now they fall to fight like bears
[F]Fa la lanky down [G]dilly
[C]To it they go and [F]soundly fight
The [C]live-long day from [G]morn' 'til night

This [C]dragon had a plaguey hide
[F]Fa la lanky down [G]dilly
That [C]could the sharpest steel abide
[F]Fa la lanky down [G]dilly
No [C]sword could enter [F]through her skin
Which [C]vexed the knight and [G]made her grin
[C] [F] [G] [C] [F] [G]
But a[C]s in choler she did burn
[F]Fa la lanky down [G]dilly
He [C]fetched the dragon a great good turn
[F]Fa la lanky down [G]dilly
And [C]as a-yawning [F]she did fall
He [C]pushed his sword up [G]hilt and all
[C] [F] [G] [C] [F] [G]
And [C]like a coward she did fly
[F]Fa la lanky down [G]dilly
[C]To her den which was hard by
[F]Fa la lanky down [G]dilly
And [C]there she lay all [F]night and roared
The [C]knight was sorry [G]for his sword
