I KNOW my Love by his way of walkingA
And I know my love by his way of talkingA
And I know my love dressed in a suit of blueB
And if my Love leaves me what will I doB
And still she cried I love him the bestC
And a troubled mind sure can know no restC
And still she cried Bonny boys are fewB
And if my Love leaves me what will I doB
-
There is a dance house in Mar dykeD
And there my true love goes every nightE
He takes a strange one upon his kneeF
And don t you think now that vexes meF
And still she cried I love him the bestC
And a troubled mind sure can know no restC
And still she cried Bonny boys are fewB
And if my Love leaves me what will I doB
-
If my Love knew I could wash and wringA
If my Love knew I could weave and spinG
I would make a dress all of the finest kindH
But the want of money sure leaves me behindH
-
And still she cried I love him the bestC
And a troubled mind sure can know no restC
And still she cried Bonny boys are fewB
And if my Love leaves me what will I doB
-
I know my Love is an arrant roverI
I know he ll wander the wide world overI
In dear old Ireland he ll no longer tarryF
And an English one he is sure to marryF
And still she cried I love him the bestC
And a troubled mind sure can know no restC
And still she cried Bonny boys are fewB
And if my Love leaves me what will I doB
