brier – the galway shawl lyrics
at orenmore in the county galway
one pleasant evening in the month of may
i spied a damsel, she was young and handsome
her beauty fairly took my breath away
cho: she wore no jewels, nor costly diamonds
no paint or powder, no, none at all
but she wore a bonnet with a ribbon on it
and round her shoulder was a galway shawl
we kept on walking, she kept on talking
’till her father’s cottage came into view
says she: ‘come in, sir, and meet my father
and play to please him ” the foggy dew.”
she sat me down beside the fire
i could see her father, he was six feet tall
and soon her mother had the kettle singing
all i could think of was the galway shawl
i played “the blackbird” and “the stack of barley”
” rodney’s glory” and “the foggy dew”
she sang each note like an irish linnet
whilst the tears stood in her eyes of blue
’twas early, early, all in the morning
when i hit the road for old donegal
she said ‘goodby, sir,’she cried and kissed me
and my heart remained with that galway shawl
