know my love by her way of walking And I know my love by her way of talking And I know my love by her suit of blue But if my love leaves me, what will I do? And yet she cries "I Love him the best" But a troubled mind sure can know no rest. And yet she cries 'Bonny boys are few' Yet if my love leaves me, what will I Do? There is a dance house in Mardyke And 'tis there my dear love goes every night And he takes a strange girl all on his knee And don't you think but it troubles me Chorus If my love knew I could wash and wring And if my love knew I could weave and spin I could make a suit all of the finest kind But the want of money, it leaves me behind Chorus
