Текст песни Katie Dear - The Seldom Scene

Oh Katie dear, go ask your mother
If you can be a bride of mine
If she says yes, come back and tell me
If she says no, we'll run away

Oh Willie dear, I cannot ask her
She's in her room a-takin' a rest
And by her side is a silver dagger
To slay the one that I love best

Oh Katie dear, go ask your father
If you can be a bride of mine
If he says yes, come back and tell me
If he says no, we'll run away

Oh Willie dear, I cannot ask him
For he's there to a-taking a rest
And by his side is a silver dagger
To slay the one that I love best

Then he picked up that silver dagger
And stove it through his weary heart
Sayin', "Goodbye Katie, goodbye darlin'"
At last the time has come to part

And she picked up that bloody dagger
And stove it through her lily white breast
Sayin' "Goodbye Willie, goodbye darlin'"
I'll die with the one that I love best
