W:I know my love by his way of walking
W:And I know my love by his way of talking
W:And I know my love in his suit of blue
W:And if my love leaves me, what will I do?
W:
W:Chorus:
W:And still she cried, "I love him the best
W:And a troubled mind sure can know no rest"
W:And still she cried, "Bonny boys are few
W:And if my love leaves me, what will I do?"
W:
W:There is a dance house in Mardyke
W:And there my true love goes every night
W:He takes a strange girl upon his knee
W:Well, now don't you know that it vexes me?
W:
W:Chorus
W:
W:If my love knew, I can wash and wring
W:If my love knew, I can weave and spin
W:I'd make a suit of the finest kind
W:But the want of money leaves me behind
W:
W:Chorus
W:
W:I know my love is an errant rover
W:And I know he'll travel the world all over
W:And in dear old Ireland he'll no longer tarry
W:And an English damsel he's sure to marry.
W:
W:Chorus
