The Dubliners - I Know My Love lyrics

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