Thread Name: Lyr Req: Belfast rhyme: 'I know who's going with m
Subject: RE: looking for lyrics of belfast rhyme -
My mother used to sing this song, this is all I can remember.
I know where I'm going,
And I know who's going with me.
I know who I love,
But dear knows who I'll marry.
I have stockings of silk
Shoes of fine green(finest) leather
Combs to buckle my hair
And a ring for every finger
Some say he's dark
But I say he's bonny
the fairest of them all
Is my handsome winsome Johnny
Feather beds are soft
And painted rooms are bonny
But I will leave them all
To go with my love Johnny
