Lyrics & music by: the chieftains 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 house in maradyke And there my true love goes every night He takes a strange girl upon his knee Well now don't you think that that vexes me? Chorus If my love knew i can wash and wring If my love knew i can sew and spin I'd make a coat of the finest kind But the want of money sure leaves me behind Chorus I know my love is an arrant rover I know he'll wander the wild world over In dear old ireland he'll no longer tarry An american girl he's sure to marry Chorus Chorus What will i do?
