Band: Кочетков Михаил
Album: Когда накроюсь медным тазом...
Song: Silver dagger

(traditional)

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 

All men are false, says my mother 
They'll tell you wicked, loving lies 
The very next evening, 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 
Of another maid he's loved and wronged 

Go 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
