Silver Dagger |
Oh don’t sing lovesongs, you’ll wake my mother. |
She’s sleeping here, right by my side. |
And in her right hand, a silver dagger. |
She says that I can’t be your bride. |
All men are false, says my mother. |
They tell you wicked, loving lies, |
And in the next breath, they’ll court another. |
Oh they’ll leave you where the sun does rise. |
My daddy is a handsome devil. |
He wears a chain oh five miles long. |
From every link a heart does dangle, |
Of another maid he’s loved and wronged. |
So then go home to your own garden. |
Ah then go home, rerurn no more. |
No other man may come a’courting. |
No other man may cross my door. |
Oh don’t sing lovesongs, coz you’ll wake my mother |
She’s sleeping here, right by my side, |
And in her right hand, a silver dagger. |
She says that I can’t be your bride. |
