Sharon Shannon - The Galway Girl lyrics

rate me

Well I took a stroll on the old long walk

of the day i ay i ay

I met a little girl and we stopped to talk

on a fine soft day i ay

And i ask you friend what's a fellah to do

cause her hair was black and her eyes were blue

And i knew right then i'd be taking a whirl

Down the Salthill prom with a Galway girl

(HO)

We're halfway there when the rain came down

On the day i ay i ay

She asked me up to her flat down town

On a fine soft day i ay

And i ask you friend what's a fellah to do

cause her hair was black and her eyes were blue

And i took her hand and i gave her a twirl

and i lost my heart to a Galway girl

(Ho)

(Ho)

and when i woke up i was all alone

with a broken heart and a ticket home

And i ask you now tell me what would you do

(Ha) if her hair was black and her eyes were blue

Cause i've travelled around

I've been all over this world

boys, I've never seen nothing like a Galway girl

(Ho)
