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 said, that I can't be your bride All men are false, said my mother They'll tell you wicked, lovin' lies And the very next evening, they'll court another Leave you alone to pine and sigh My daddy, he's 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 So court another 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 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
