Fiddler’s Green
The Galway Girl
[Verse 1]
Well, I took a stroll down the old long walk
On a day I ay I ay
Met a little girl and we stopped to talk
On a fine soft day I ay

[Chorus]
And I ask you, friend, what's a 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

[Verse 2]
We were halfway there when the rain came down
On a day I ay I ay
And she asked me up to her flat downtown
On a fine soft day I ay

[Chorus]
And I ask you, friend, what's a 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 the galway girl

[Bridge]
When I woke up I was all alone
With a broken heart and a ticket home
[Chorus]
And I ask you now, tell me what would you do?
If her hair was black and her eyes were blue
You see, I travelled around, been all over this world
Oh boys, I ain't seen nothin' like the galway girl
