Race You to the Top of the Morning - Mandy Patinkin (曼迪·帕汀金)[00:00:00]

Written by：L. Simon/M. Norman/Lucy Simon[00:00:03]

Producer：Thomas Z. Shepard[00:00:04]

When we left off last night[00:00:06]

The hideous dragon[00:00:07]

Had carried the maid to his cave by moonlight[00:00:08]

He gnashed his teeth and breathed his fire[00:00:10]

The heath quaked and we trembled in fear[00:00:12]

I said someone must save this sweet raven-haired maiden[00:00:15]

Though surely the cost will be steep[00:00:20]

So we lads all drew lots[00:00:23]

Our insides tied in knots[00:00:26]

And I won and the rest went to sleep[00:00:28]

So I picked up my staff[00:00:32]

And I followed the trail Of his smoke[00:00:34]

To the mouth of the cave[00:00:37]

And I bid him come out[00:00:40]

Yea forsooth I did shout[00:00:42]

Ye fool dragon be gone or behave[00:00:44]

And then under my breath[00:00:51]

I uttered a charm said[00:00:53]

To make the worst fiends become kind[00:00:55]

Knaves and knights of dire plights[00:00:58]

Now diminish his sights[00:01:01]

And it worked and the dragon went blind[00:01:03]

And he charged off the cliff[00:01:06]

Howling mad and he died[00:01:08]

And the maiden accepted my ring[00:01:10]

And then you came along[00:01:14]

And were brave bold and strong[00:01:16]

And in thanks every night now I sing[00:01:18]

Race you to the top of the morning[00:01:22]

Come sit on my shoulders and ride[00:01:26]

Run and hide I'll come and find you[00:01:30]

Climb hills to remind you[00:01:34]

I love you my boy at my side[00:01:38]

Now another foul dragon's appeared[00:01:44]

I must leave you[00:01:47]

He's scorching our land with his breath[00:01:49]

From his lair this one taunts me[00:01:52]

He dares me he haunts me[00:01:54]

Once again we must fight to the death[00:01:56]

Would to God I could stay and instead slay your dragon[00:01:59]

This beast who sits hunched on your back[00:02:03]

Would God I could wrench him away from your bed[00:02:07]

Or cut off or tear off his terrible head[00:02:10]

Could breathe out my fire on him[00:02:14]

'Till he was dead[00:02:16]

Or beg him to spare you and take me instead[00:02:17]

As it is I must leave you in care of my brother[00:02:34]

The wizard who lives on the hill[00:02:40]

Who has promised his art[00:02:43]

Will soon pierce through the heart[00:02:46]

Of this dragon that's keeping you ill[00:02:48]

And I know that your mother God bless her[00:02:52]

Would want you to do as he says and grow strong[00:02:56]

And you know that as soon as I can I'll return[00:03:01]

So be brave son and know that I long[00:03:05]

To race you to the top of the morning[00:03:09]

Come sit on my shoulders and ride[00:03:14]

Run and hide I'll come and find you[00:03:18]

Climb hills to remind you[00:03:23]

I love you[00:03:28]

I love you my boy at my side[00:03:32]
