In the county Galway

One pleasant evening
In the month of May
One pleasant evening
In the month of May
I spied a damsel
She was fair

And handsome
Her beauty fairly
Stole my heart away
Her beauty fairly
Stole my heart away
She wore no jewels
No costly diamonds

No paint nor powder
No none at all
No paint nor powder
No none at all
With a ribbon on it

And round her shoulders
Was a Galway Shawl
And round her shoulders
Was a Galway Shawl
She kept on talking

Until her cottage
Came into view
Until her cottage
Came into view
And meet me father

And play to please him
The Foggy Dew
And play to please him
The Foggy Dew
The Stacks of Barley

Rodney's Glory
And the Foggy Dew
Rodney's Glory
And the Foggy Dew
Like an Irish Iinnet

And the tears
Came into
Her eyes of blue
'Twas early early
The very next morning

I hit the road for
Ole' Donegal
The very next morning

I hit the road for
Ole' Donegal
She said goodbye sir
And then she kissed me

And my heart

Remained with
The Galway Shawl
And then she kissed me

And my heart

Remained with
The Galway Shawl
She wore no jewels
No costly diamonds

No paint nor powder
No none at all
No costly diamonds

No paint nor powder
No none at all
She wore a bonnet
With a ribbon on it

And round her shoulders
Was a Galway Shawl
With a ribbon on it

And round her shoulders
Was a Galway Shawl
And round her shoulders

Was a Galway Shawl
