Silver Dagger - Live

Lyrics

Don't sing love songs, 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 [Verse 2] "All men are false, " says my mother They'll tell you wicked, lovin' lies The very next evening, they'll court another Leave you alone to pine and sigh [Verse 3] My daddy is a handsome devil He's got a chain five miles long And on every link a heart does dangle Of anothеr maid he's loved and wronged [Verse 4] Go court anothеr tender maiden And hope that she will be your wife For I've been warned, and I've decided To sleep alone all of my life
