Centuries ago we were the saviors,

The heroes of the weak and the poor.

Protecting them against the invaders,

Made evil man drop dead on the floor.

Everybody heard about the Black Knights,

Our stories spread from the east to the west.

All the time we're harassed by arrows,

A coat of mail around our chests.

For almost thousand years ago

You paid for your protection, bro.

Now you know

Why you have to pay for Black Knight.

Now you know

Why you have to pay for Black Knight.

These days the Black Knights are musicians,

Protecting neither the weak nor the poor.

Just playing day and night we'll never give in,

Another thousand years to go.

For almost thousand years ago

You paid for your protection, bro.

Now you know

Why you have to pay for Black Knight.

Now you know

Why you have to pay for Black Knight.
