The Galway Girl

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [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 Around the Salthill prom with a Galway girl, ha [Verse 2] We were halfway there when the rain came down Of a day-i-ay-i-ay She asked me up to her flat downtown Of a fine soft day-i-ay [Chorus] And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do? Because her hair was black and her eyes were blue So I took her hand and I give her a twirl And I lost my heart to a Galway girl, yeah [Bridge] Oh, 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? Oh, if her hair was black and her eyes were blue 'Cause I've traveled around, I've been all over this world Boys, I ain't never seen nothin' like a Galway girl No, I ain't never seen nothin' like a Galway girl
