The Star of the County Down - Sheoda[00:00:01]
Written by:Trad.brett[00:00:03]
In Banbridge town in the county down[00:00:19]
One morning last July[00:00:24]
From a Boreen green came a sweet colleen[00:00:28]
And she smiled as she passed me by[00:00:33]
She looked so sweet from her two bare feet[00:00:38]
To the sheen of her nut brown hair[00:00:43]
Such a coaxing elf sure I shook myself[00:00:47]
For to see I was really there[00:00:53]
As she onward sped sure I scratched my head[00:00:57]
And I looked with a feelin' rare[00:01:02]
And I say's say's I to a passer by[00:01:07]
Whose the maid with the nut brown hair[00:01:12]
He smiled at me and he says say's he[00:01:17]
That's the gem of Ireland's crown[00:01:21]
It's Rosie Mccann from the banks of the Bann[00:01:25]
She's the star of the county down[00:01:31]
From Bantry bay up to Derry quay and[00:01:36]
From Galway to Dublin town[00:01:41]
No maid I've seen like the brown colleen[00:01:45]
That I met in the county down[00:01:50]
At the harvest fair she'll be surely there[00:01:55]
And I'll dress in my Sunday clothes[00:02:00]
With my shoes shone bright and my hat cocked[00:02:05]
Right for a smile from my nut brown rose[00:02:09]
No pipe I'll smoke no horse I'll yoke[00:02:14]
Till my plough turns rust colored brown[00:02:19]
Till a smiling bride by my own fireside[00:02:24]
Sits the star of the county down[00:02:29]
From Bantry bay up to Derry quay and[00:02:33]
From Galway to Dublin town[00:02:38]
No maid I've seen like the brown colleen[00:02:43]
That I met in the county down[00:02:48]
From Bantry bay up to Derry quay and[00:02:52]
From Galway to Dublin town[00:02:58]
No maid I've seen like the brown colleen[00:03:01]
That I met in the county down[00:03:07]
