Five Brave Knights
Beth DeVolder & Ron Hiller (RONNO)

Five brave knights came galloping by
One fell from his horse and began to cry
The dragon laughed from behind a tree,
“O brave knights, you can’t (won’t) catch me!”

Four brave knights came galloping by
One fell with the other and began to cry
The dragon laughed from behind a tree,
“O brave knights, you can’t (won’t) catch me!”

Three brave knights came galloping by
One fell with the others and began to cry
The dragon laughed from behind a tree,
“O brave knights, you can’t (won’t) catch me!”

Two brave knights came galloping by
One fell with the others and began to cry
The dragon laughed from behind a tree,
“O brave knights, you can’t (won’t) catch me!”

One brave knight came galloping by
He fell with the others and began to cry
The dragon laughed from behind a tree,
“O brave knights, you can’t (won’t) catch me!”

(slowly)
No brave knights came galloping by
‘Cuz they were crawling through the grass for a big surprise
The dragon cried from behind a tree,
“Oh no! Five knights have surrounded me!” (In a crying voice)
