The Star of the County Down (1989 Digital Remaster) - John McCormack/Gerald Moore[00:00:00]

Written by：Cathal MacGarvey/Traditional English/Herbert Hughes[00:00:03]

Near banbridge town[00:00:05]

In the county down[00:00:07]

One evening last July[00:00:08]

Down a boithrin green came a sweet cailin[00:00:11]

And she smiled as she passed me by[00:00:14]

She looked so neat in her two bare feet[00:00:17]

To the sheen of her nut brown hair[00:00:20]

Such a coaxing elf[00:00:22]

I'd to shake myself[00:00:24]

To make sure I was standing there[00:00:25]

From bantry bay down to Derry quay[00:00:28]

From galway to Dublin town[00:00:31]

No maid I've seen like the fair cailin[00:00:33]

That I met in the county down[00:00:36]

As she onward sped I shook my head[00:00:44]

And I gazed with a feeling queer[00:00:46]

And I said says I to a passerby[00:00:49]

Who's your one with the nut brown hair[00:00:51]

He smiled at me and with pride says he[00:00:54]

She's the gem of old Ireland's crown[00:00:57]

Young rosie mccann from[00:01:00]

The banks of the bann[00:01:01]

And the star of the county down[00:01:02]

From bantry bay down to Derry quay[00:01:05]

From galway to Dublin town[00:01:08]

No maid I've seen like the fair cailin[00:01:10]

That I met in the county down[00:01:12]

At the harvest fair she'll be surely there[00:01:20]

And I'll dress my Sunday clothes[00:01:23]

With my hat cocked right[00:01:26]

And my shoes shon bright[00:01:28]

For a smile from the nut brown rose[00:01:29]

No horse I'll yoke or pipe I smoke[00:01:32]

Til the rust in my plough turn brown[00:01:35]

And a smiling bride by my own fireside[00:01:38]

Sits the star of the county down[00:01:41]

From bantry bay down to Derry quay[00:01:44]

From galway to Dublin town[00:01:46]

No maid I've seen like the fair cailin[00:01:49]

That I met in the county down[00:01:53]
