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 ay i ay
[Verse 2]
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 taking a whirl
Round the Salthill prom with a Galway girl
[Verse 3]
We were halfway there when the rain came down
Of a day i ay i ay
And she asked me up to her flat downtown
Of a fine soft day ay i ay
[Verse 4]
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 a Galway girl
[Verse 5]
When I woke up I was all alone
With a broken heart and a ticket home
[Verse 6]
And I ask you now
Tell me what would you do
If her hair was black and her eyes were blue
I've traveled around
I've been all over this world
I ain't never seen nothing like a Galway girl
