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?
[chorus:]
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 mardyk-
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
[chorus]
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
[chorus]
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
[chorus]
