the galway shawl - various artists[00:03:52]
at orenmore in the county galway,[00:03:52]
one pleasant evening in the month of may,[00:03:52]
i spied a damsel, she was young and handsome[00:03:52]
her beauty fairly took my breath away.[00:03:52]
she wore no jewels, nor costly diamonds,[00:03:52]
no paint or powder, no, none at all.[00:03:52]
but she wore a bonnet with a ribbon on it[00:03:52]
and round her shoulder was a galway shawl.[00:03:52]
we kept on walking, she kept on talking,[00:03:52]
'till her father's cottage came into view.[00:03:52]
says she: 'come in, sir, and meet my father,[00:03:52]
and play to please him " the foggy dew."[00:03:52]
i played "the blackbird" and "the stack of barley",[00:03:52]
" rodney's glory" and "the foggy dew",[00:03:52]
she sang each note like an irish linnet.[00:03:52]
whilst the tears stood in her eyes of blue.[00:03:52]
she wore no jewels, nor costly diamonds,[00:03:52]
no paint or powder, no, none at all.[00:03:52]
but she wore a bonnet with a ribbon on it[00:03:52]
and round her shoulder was a galway shawl.[00:03:52]
'twas early, early, all in the morning,[00:03:52]
when i hit the road for old donegal.[00:03:52]
'she cried and kissed me, and she said 'goodby, sir,[00:03:52]
and my heart remained with that galway shawl.[00:03:52]
she wore no jewels, nor costly diamonds,[00:03:52]
no paint or powder, no, none at all.[00:03:52]
but she wore a bonnet with a ribbon on it[00:03:52]
and round her shoulder was a galway shawl.[00:03:52]
