Song

Knight In Rusty Armour:Peter And Gordon.
#15 on BB Hot 100 on COLUMBIA Records in 1966.
INTRO: Am C E7 (x2)
#1.
Long ago, in days of old, there lived a knight who
wasn't quite as bold, as a knight should be.
He rode an old grey mare called Bess, searchin' for
a damsel in distress...just to see if he, could set her free.
CHORUS:
See the knight in rusty armour ride..to her aid.
Trusty sword is hanging at his side..with a rusty blade.
#2.
Up the tower steps he sneaked, but as he moved,
his rusty armour squeaked..such a mournful note..
that all the sentries at their posts, thought it must
have been the castle ghost.
They jumped for their lives..in the moat.
CHORUS:#2.
So the knight in rusty armour won..his fair maid.
Had no need to draw his trusty sword..with a rusty blade.
#3.
As he bent to kiss his bride, he found that he was
rusted up inside..in his battle dress.
And I can't guess...
how they still got married and had twins..
they came in tins.
OUTRO:
Every suit of armour ever made, has a kink,
chain mail pants with a missing link.
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
