Lyrics
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-I-ay
And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do
If 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
Of a day-I-ay-I-ay
And she asked me up to her flat downtown
Of a fine soft day-I-ay-I-ay
So I took her hand and I gave her a twirl
And I lost my heart to a Galway girl
And I ask you, friend, tell me what would you do
If her hair was black and her eyes were blue
When I woke up I was all alone
I had a broken heart and a ticket home
And I ask you friend, what's a fella to do
If her hair was black and her eyes were blue
I've been travelling 'round been all over this world
Boys I ain't never seen nothin' like a Galway girl
