Silver Dagger Songtext
von Fellow Pynins

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
