Clancy Brothers, The Dubliners & The Irish Rovers - Galway Bay lyrics

rate me

Maybe someday, I'll go back again to Ireland

And my dear old wife would only pass away

She nearly has my heart broke with her naggin'

She's got a mouth as big as Galway Bay

See her drinkin' sixteen pints of Pabst Blue Ribbon, commercial

And then she can walk home without a sway

If the sea was beer instead of salty water

She would live and die in Galway Bay

See her drinkin' sixteen pints of Padgo Murphy's

The barman says, "I think it's time to go"

And she doesn't try to speak to him in Gaelic

In a language that the clergy do not know

On her back she has tattooed a map of Ireland

And when she takes her bath on Saturday

She rubs the sunlight soap around by Claddaugh

Just to watch the suds flow down by Galway Bay
