Sir Eglamore was a valiant knight
A valiant knight and true
He took up his sword and he went to fight
As now I'll tell to you
He wandered over hill and dale
With sword and lance and coat of mail
Here's a health to bold Sir Eglamore
A valiant knight was he
There came a dragon out of her den
A dragon both fierce and fell
She'd slain God knows how many men
With a flame as hot as hell
And when she saw Sir Eglamore
She let out such a fearsome roar
Here's a health to bold Sir Eglamore
A valiant knight was he
This dragon had on a plaguey hide
With scales all over her skin
She could the sharpest spear abide
No sword could enter in
And though Sir Eglamore fought well
He could not make his blows to tell
Here's a health to bold Sir Eglamore
A valiant knight was he
And then just as it seemed the knight
From life must soon depart
The dragon rose and he caught sight
Of a gap above her heart
And as a-roaring she did fall
He thrust his sword in hilt and all
Here's a health to bold Sir Eglamore
A valiant knight was he
The dragon lay down on her side
And let out one last roar
And in the place whereat she died
She'll lie for evermore
And all the townfolk who were freed
Sang of Sir Eglamore's wondrous deed
Here's a health to bold Sir Eglamore
A valiant knight was he
Here's a health to bold Sir Eglamore
A valiant knight was he
