Lyrics written circa 1977 about a chess game.
lyrics
I’m a white knight
And I’m guarding my king
Yeah, I’m a white knight
The battle of chess is just beginning
Starting our attack
Pawns moving up the board
And one of our bishops
Moves to guard our Lord
Well, I’m a white knight
I’m a white knight
And I’m on the attack
Moving in on a black pawn
Well, he can’t go back
What is this I can move in
First chance I get
I’m to mate the black King
I’m a white knight
Yeah, I’m a white knight
And I’m guarding my king
Yeah, I’m a white knight
And I’m moving on in
Relying on the players wit
One mistake, and I might get hit
What is this, I need some support
It’s looking bad, and I can’t get back
A great big black rook, Is spying on me
I’m easy prey, for one a fast as he
I’m a white knight
I’m a white knight
Guarding my king
Yeah, I’m a white knight
And I’m moving on in
Well, he saved me from attack
Could be the oppositions, first mistake
Well, here I go, the black king Is in
Check mate.
And I’m guarding my king
Yeah, I’m a white knight
The battle of chess is just beginning
Starting our attack
Pawns moving up the board
And one of our bishops
Moves to guard our Lord
Well, I’m a white knight
I’m a white knight
And I’m on the attack
Moving in on a black pawn
Well, he can’t go back
What is this I can move in
First chance I get
I’m to mate the black King
I’m a white knight
Yeah, I’m a white knight
And I’m guarding my king
Yeah, I’m a white knight
And I’m moving on in
Relying on the players wit
One mistake, and I might get hit
What is this, I need some support
It’s looking bad, and I can’t get back
A great big black rook, Is spying on me
I’m easy prey, for one a fast as he
I’m a white knight
I’m a white knight
Guarding my king
Yeah, I’m a white knight
And I’m moving on in
Well, he saved me from attack
Could be the oppositions, first mistake
Well, here I go, the black king Is in
Check mate.

about
KCJ RAR York, UK
KCJ RAR's Project Retoons, recreating my songs from the 70's and 80's, layering vocals, guitars and virtual instruments to
create classic rock numbers that never were; symphonic prog epics that could have been; and avant-garde psychedelic art rock grooves that surely fill a gap in music history!
In short, a lot of fun reliving my youth.
