Silver Dagger - Live

[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 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
