Pack me a rope, Ma, pack it so tight
I'm going hunting, gone at first light
Pack me a longbow, Ma, pack it for me
I'm gonna track down a dragon, you'll see
Farewell, my washing up
Farewell my hearth
Don't care for comforts, a roof, nor a bath
Knee deep in muck, Ma, see, I don't mind
I'll follow his scent, Ma, I could do this blind
Do not tell father, do not tell the Church
I'll be a rider, you heard it here first
I know you don't trust me
You think I'm insane
Just promise you'll write ‘The Bold' next to my name
It's been seven months, Ma, I think I am close
I just found this cave, Ma, I don't mean to boast
I've lost a few pounds, Ma, I promise I'm fine
See, I cannot return 'til that dragon is mine
So many bones, Ma, should I light my torch?
Wish I was dancing with you on the porch
'Cause there he is, Ma
By Heavens, he's huge
My body might fail me
But by gods, I refuse
Do not tell father, do not tell the Church
I'll be a rider, you heard it here first
I know you don't trust me
You think I'm insane
Just promise you'll write ‘The Bold' next to my name
Unfurl the rope, Ma, the one that you packed
I feel you here with me, guarding my back
Skin is like leather, I think I'm in love
He's spreading his wings out, as soft as a dove
I climb aboard him, my knees tucked in tight
Me and him, him and I, into the night
I'm coming home, Ma, come out on the street
I'm bringing back someone I'd like you to meet
