GerryM Origins: Silver Dagger: Child abuse or love? (38) RE: Origins: Silver Dagger: Child abuse or love? 12 Apr 21


Dave Van Ronk recorded a song, under the title "Siver Dagger", which follows the "Katy Dear" lyrics given upthread, except that instead of Katy the woman's name is Molly, and there's a seventh stanza which goes,

Let's all take out our silver daggers,
Plunge them into our lily-white breasts
Saying goodbye Father, goodbye Mother
Goodbye to the one we love best.
