[Intro]
(This next song is called "Silver Dagger")
[Verse 1]
Don't sing love songs, you'll wake my mother
She's sleeping here right by my side
And in her right hand a silvery dagger
She says that I can't be your wife
[Verse 2]
"All men are false" says my mother
"They'll tell you wicked love and 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 another maid he's loved and wronged
[Verse 4]
Go court another tender maiden
And hope that she will be your wife
For I have been warned, and I've decided
To sleep alone all of my life
