Oh, Molly, dear, go ask your mother
If you may be a bride of mine
If she says yes, we will be married
If she says no, we'll run away

Oh, Willie, dear, I dare not ask her
She's in her chamber taking a rest
And at her side a silver dagger
To kill the one that I love best

Oh, Molly, dear, go ask your father
If you may be a bride of mine
If he says yes, we will be married
If he says no, we'll run away

Oh, Willie, dear, I dare not ask him
He's in his chamber taking a rest
At his side a silver dagger
To kill the one that I love best

And she took out her silver dagger
Plunged it into her lily-white breast
Saying, "goodbye, father, goodbye, mother
Goodbye to the one that I love best"
And he took out his silver dagger
Plunged it into his lily-white breast
Saying, "goodbye, father, goodbye, mother
Goodbye to the one that I love best"

Let's all take out our silver daggers
Plunge them into our lily-white breasts
Saying, "goodbye, father, goodbye, mother
Goodbye to the one that we love best"
