lyrics

Oh Katie dear go ask your mamma
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 there’s no use in asking
She’s in her room taking a rest
And by her side is a silver dagger
To slay the one that I love best.

Oh Katie dear go ask your papa
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, there’s no use in asking
He’s in his room taking a rest
And by his side is a silver dagger
To slay the one that I love best.

So he picked up that silver dagger
And plunged it through his troubled heart
Saying goodbye Katie, goodbye darlin’
It's now forever we must part.

Then she picked up that bloody dagger
And plunged it through her lily-white breast
Saying goodbye mamma, goodbye papa;
I’ll die with the one that I love best.

Eulalie Cleveland Heights, Ohio

Eulalie (pronounce it "YOU-la-lee")
True blue. Guaranteed 100% irony-free.

Hauntingly stark, sweetly sentimental, or just plain fun,
these old songs tell the stories of people's lives.
Ron & Donna treat these treasures with the love and respect of honest, straightforward arrangements inspired by the old masters of parlor, dance hall, and backwoods.
