Silver Dagger
Don't sing love songs, you'll wake my mother
She's sleepin' here right by my side
And in her right hand, a silver dagger
She said that I can't be your bride
All men are false, says my mother
They'll tell you wicked, lovin' lies
And the very next evenin' they'll court another
Leave you alone to pine and sigh
My daddy is a handsome devil
He's got a chain five miles long
And on every link, a heart does dangle
For another maid he's loved and wronged
So court another handsome, lady
And hope that she might be your bride
'Cause I've been warned and I've decided
To live alone for all my life
Don't sing love songs, you'll wake my mother
She's sleepin' here right by my side
And in her right hand, a silver dagger
She said that I can't be your bride
She's sleepin' here right by my side
And in her right hand, a silver dagger
She said that I can't be your bride
All men are false, says my mother
They'll tell you wicked, lovin' lies
And the very next evenin' they'll court another
Leave you alone to pine and sigh
My daddy is a handsome devil
He's got a chain five miles long
And on every link, a heart does dangle
For another maid he's loved and wronged
So court another handsome, lady
And hope that she might be your bride
'Cause I've been warned and I've decided
To live alone for all my life
Don't sing love songs, you'll wake my mother
She's sleepin' here right by my side
And in her right hand, a silver dagger
She said that I can't be your bride
