The Galway Girl Lyrics

Well, I took a stroll on the old long walk
Of a day-I-ay-I-ay
I met a little girl and we stopped to talk
Of a fine soft day-I-ay-I-ay
And I ask you, friend, what's fella to do
'Cause her hair was black and her eyes were blue'
And I knew right then I'd be takin' a whirl
'Round the Salthill Prom with a ... Galway girl

We were halfway there when the rain came down
Of a day-I-ay-I-ay
And she asked me up to her fat downtown
Of a fine soft day-I-ay-I-ay
And I ask you, friend, what's fella to do
'Cause her hair was black and her eyes were blue'
So, I took her hand and I gave her a twirl
And I lost my heart to a Galway girl

When I woke up I was al alone
With a broken heart and a ticket home
And I ask you now, tell me what would you do
If her hair was black and her eyes were blue'
I've traveled around I've been all over this world
Boys I ain't never seen nothin' like a Galway girl
