St. George and the Dragonet (Themes From Dragnet)
The legend you are about to hear is true
Only the needle should be changed to protect the record
This is the countryside
My name is St. George
I'm a knight
Saturday, July 10th. 8:05 pm
I was working out of the castle on the nightwatch
When a call came in from the Chief
A dragon had been devouring maidens
Homicide. My job: slay him
You call me, Chief
Yes, the dragon again, devouring maidens
The King's daughter may be next
Mmm-hmm. You got a lead
Oh, nothing much to go on.
Say, did you take that .45 automatic
Into the lab to have them check on it
Yeah. You were right
I was right
Yeah. It was a gun
8:22 pm. I talked to one of the maidens
who had almost been devoured
Could I talk to you, Ma'am
Who are you
I'm St. George, Ma'am
Homicide, Ma'am
Want to ask you a few questions, Ma'am
I understand you were almost devoured by the dragon, Ma'am
Is that right, dragon
It was terrible.
He breathed fire on me
He burned me already
How can I be sure of that, Ma'am
Believe me, I got it straight from the dragon's mouth
11:45 pm. I rode over the King's Highway.
I saw a man. Stopped to talk to him
Pardon me, Sir
