The Galway Girl - Fiddler's Green

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

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

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

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

When I woke up I was all alone

With a broken heart and a ticket home
