Song by the Corrs - I KNOW MY LOVE





http://www.traditionalmusic.co.uk/folk-songs-with-chords/I%20Know%20My%20Love.htm


I Know My Love - Lyrics & Chords

"I know my love by his way o' walkin',
And I know my love by his way o' talkin',
And I know my love dressed in a suit o' blue,
And if my love leaves me what will 1 do-o-o?"

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 dancehouse in Maradyke,
And there my true love goes ev'ry night.
He takes a strange girl upon his knee,
And don't you think now that vexes me-e-e ?"

"If my love knew I could wash and wring,
If my love knew I could sew and spin,
I'd make a coat all 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



WHAT WILL I DO?

It's a Long Way to Tipperary




It's a Long Way to Tipperary

Up to mighty London came
An Irish lad one day,
All the streets were paved with gold,
So everyone was gay!
Singing songs of Piccadilly,
Strand, and Leicester Square,
'Til Paddy got excited and
He shouted to them there:

It's a long way to Tipperary,
It's a long way to go.
It's a long way to Tipperary
To the sweetest girl I know!
Goodbye Piccadilly,
Farewell Leicester Square!
It's a long long way to Tipperary,
But my heart's right there.

Paddy wrote a letter
To his Irish Molly O',
Saying, "Should you not receive it,
Write and let me know!
If I make mistakes in "spelling",
Molly dear", said he,
"Remember it's the pen, that's bad,
Don't lay the blame on me".

It's a long way to Tipperary,
It's a long way to go.
It's a long way to Tipperary
To the sweetest girl I know!
Goodbye Piccadilly,
Farewell Leicester Square,
It's a long long way to Tipperary,
But my heart's right there.

Molly wrote a neat reply
To Irish Paddy O',
Saying, "Mike Maloney wants
To marry me, and so
Leave the Strand and Piccadilly,
Or you'll be to blame,
For love has fairly drove me silly,
Hoping you're the same!"

It's a long way to Tipperary,
It's a long way to go.
It's a long way to Tipperary
To the sweetest girl I know!
Goodbye Piccadilly,
Farewell Leicester Square,
It's a long long way to Tipperary,
But my heart's right there.

Reproduced below are the lyrics to the popular British anthem, It's a Long Way to Tipperary.

Easily one of the most popular anthems sung by soldiers on the way to the Western Front during the early enthusiasm of summer 1914, the song was written by Jack Judge and Harry Williams some two years earlier in 1912.

Three versions of the song are available here; the first was recorded by John McCormack in 1914; the second was recorded by the American Quartet with Billy Murray, also in 1914; and the third was recorded in January 1915 by Albert Farrington.

Use the player above to listen to all three versions.

English tongue-twister: Betty Botter

http://www.englishexperts.com.br/2009/09/28/trava-linguas-em-ingles-betty-botter/


(00:01:03)

Betty Botter bought some butter,
But, she said, “the butter’s bitter;
If I put it in my batter,
It will make my batter bitter;
But a bit of better butter,
That would make my batter better.
So she bought a bit of butter,
Better than her bitter butter,
And she put it in her batter,
And the batter was not bitter;
So t’was better Betty Botter
Bought a bit of better butter.
