WellI 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 youfriendwhat 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
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
And I ask youfriendwhat 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

When I woke up I was all alone
With a broken heart and a ticket home
And I ask you nowtell 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
Boys I ain t never seen nothin like a Galway girl
