The Star of the County Down - The King'S Singers[00:00:02]

Near banbridge town[00:00:08]

In the county down[00:00:09]

One evening last july[00:00:11]

Down a bóithrín green came a sweet cailín[00:00:14]

And she smiled as she passed me by[00:00:17]

She looked so neat in her two bare feet[00:00:21]

To the sheen of her nut brown hair[00:00:25]

Such a coaxing elf i'd to shake myself[00:00:28]

To make sure i was standing there[00:00:32]

From bantry bay down to derry quay[00:00:36]

From galway to dublin town[00:00:39]

No maid i've seen like the fair cailín[00:00:42]

That i met in the county down[00:00:45]

As she onward sped i shook my head[00:00:53]

And i gazed with a feeling queer[00:00:56]

And i said says i to a passerby[00:01:00]

Who's your one with the nut brown hair[00:01:03]

He smiled at me and with pride says he[00:01:06]

She's the gem of old ireland's crown[00:01:10]

Young rosie mccann from the banks of the bann[00:01:14]

And the star of the county down[00:01:17]

From bantry bay down to derry quay[00:01:21]

From galway to dublin town[00:01:24]

No maid i've seen like the fair cailín[00:01:27]

That i met in the county down[00:01:31]

She'd a soft brown eye and[00:02:17]

A look so sly and a smile like the rose in june[00:02:19]

And you held each note from her auburn throat[00:02:24]

As she lilted lamenting tunes[00:02:27]

At the pattern dance you'd be in trance[00:02:31]

As she skipped through a jig or reel[00:02:34]

When her eyes she'd roll as she'd lift soul[00:02:38]

And your heart she would likely steal[00:02:46]

From bantry bay down to derry quay[00:02:52]

From galway to dublin town[00:02:55]

No maid i've seen like the fair cailín[00:02:59]

That i met in the county down[00:03:02]

That i met in the county down[00:03:10]
