Grave Digger is a German heavy/speed metal band formed 1980 in Gladbeck, a small town in Germany. While the band has released many albums since 1984, their most recent was this year's "Liberty or Death". The line-up has changed many times since the beginning. The band also split up once in 1986 and reunited in 1993. The only original member from the early days is vocalist Chris Boltendahl, whose rough voice has become a kind of significant trademark of Grave Digger.

Pendragon Lyrics

Grave Digger

[The story of King Uther and Lady Igerne (the Duke of Cornwall's wife), and of the birth of King Arthur. King Uther was given the byname of Pendragon because of the night he conceived Arthur with Lady Igerne, a star in the form of dragon appeared to him in the sky and the night was bathed in a blood-red light]
On the battlefield I sharpen my claws, hunt my luck
I never knew what was the missing link, I haven't got
Until that day I saw her with her man at her side
I knew I had to have her, a conjuring trick and she'll be mine
Mighty drake
Tail of snake
All at stake
Earth will quake
Saurian eyes
Never cry
Hopes are high
Dragon fly!
Pendragon, Pendragon,
Stars split the sky
Pendragon, Pendragon,
Your fire conquers the night
To the castle where my bliss dwells the wings take me
I give away the fruit of her womb for her hearts key
Her husband killed in action when she gave herself to me
I deceived her and I fooled her but still she loves me
See the dragon, see him fly,
Feel the fire burning in the sky
See the dragon, see him fly,
Falling down from the sky
