Galway Girl

[00:00.01] I meet her on Grafton street right outside of the bar

[00:02.50] She shared a cigarette with me while her brother played the guitar

[00:05.01] She asked me what does it mean, the Gaelic ink on your arm?

[00:07.51] Said it was one of my friend's songs, do you want to drink on?

[00:10.01] She took Jamie as a chaser, Jack for the fun

[00:12.28] She got Arthur on the table with Johnny riding as a shotgun

[00:15.01] Chatted some more, one more drink at the bar

[00:17.02] Then put Van on the jukebox, got up to dance

[00:19.27] You know, she played the fiddle in an Irish band

[00:22.02] But she fell in love with an English man

[00:24.24] Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

[00:26.77] Said, "baby, I just want to dance"

[00:28.51] With my pretty little Galway girl

[00:33.76] You're my pretty little Galway girl

[00:38.76] You know she beat me at darts and then she beat me at pool

[00:41.01] And then she kissed me like there was nobody else in the room

[00:43.53] As last orders were called was when she stood on the stool

[00:46.02] After dancing to Kaleigh, singing to trad tunes

[00:48.51] I never heard Carrickfergus ever sang so sweet

[00:50.78] A capella in the bar using her feet for a beat

[00:53.01] Oh, I could have that voice playing on repeat for a week

[00:55.52] And in this packed out room swear she was singing to me

[00:58.00] You know, she played the fiddle in an Irish band

[01:00.52] But she fell in love with an English man

[01:02.79] Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

[01:05.26] Said, "baby, I just want to dance"

[01:07.02] My pretty little Galway girl

[01:10.77] My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girl

[01:15.49] My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girl

[01:20.26] My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girl

[01:26.77] And now we've outstayed our welcome and it's closing time

[01:29.25] I was holding her hand, her hand was holding mine

[01:31.74] Our coats both smell of smoke, whisky and wine

[01:34.01] As we fill up our lungs with the cold air of the night

[01:36.50] I walked her home then she took me inside

[01:39.01] To finish some Doritos and another bottle of wine

[01:41.26] I swear I'm gonna put you in a song that I write

[01:43.77] About a Galway girl and a perfect night

[01:46.26] She played the fiddle in an Irish band

[01:48.27] But she fell in love with an English man

[01:50.77] Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

[01:53.28] Said, "baby, I just want to dance"

[01:55.01] My pretty little Galway girl

[01:58.79] My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girl

[02:03.25] My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girl

[02:08.25] My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girl, hey
