The Silver Dagger

	作词 : Traditional
	Don't sing love songs, you'll wake my mother
	She's sleeping here right by my side
	In her right hand a silver dagger
	She says that I can't be your bride
	All men are fools, so says my mother
	They'll tell you again love and lies
	And then they'll go and court some other
	Leave you alone to pine inside
	My daddy is a handsome devil
	He's got a chain five miles long
	On every link a heart does dangle
	Of another maid he's loved and wronged
	Go court another tender maiden
	In hopes that she might be your bride
	For I've been warned, so I decided
	I'll sleep alone all of my life
	Don't sing love songs, you'll wake my mother
	She's sleeping here right by my side
	In her right hand a silver dagger
	She says that I can't be your bride
