Intro: Verse: Don't sing your songs, you'll wake my father He's sleeping here, right by my side And in his hand, a silver dagger, He says that you can't be me bride. Verse: All women are false, so says my father, They'll tell you wicked, lovin' lies. The very next day, they'll court another, Leave you alone to pine and sigh. (x2) Verse: My mommy is a awful devil She's got a chain five miles long, And on every link a heart does dangle Of another man she's loved and wronged. Verse: So go and court some other sucker, And hope that you can't be his wife, For I've been warned, and I've decided To sleep alone, for all of my life. Outro: (x4)
