I took a stroll on the old long walk
On a 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 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
On a day -I-ay-I-ay
She asked me up to her flat downtown
On a fine soft day -I-ay-
And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do
If her hair was black and her eyes were blue
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 now, what would you do
If her hair was black and her eyes were blue
See I've traveled around been all over this world
Boys I ain't never seen nothin' like a Galway girl
I took a stroll on the old long walk
On a day I ay-I ay
I met a little girl and we stopped to talk
On a fine soft day I-ay
I took her hand and I gave her a twirl
And I lost my heart to a Galway girl
