tears for beers - star of the county down lyrics

Loading...

close to banbridge town, in the county down
one morning last july
down a boreen green came a sweet colleen
and she smiled as she p-ssed me by;
she looked so neat from her two bare feet,
to the sheen of her nut-brown hair,
such a coaxing elf, i`d to shake myself,
to make sure i was really there.

from bantry bay up to derry quay,
and from galway to dublin town,
na maid i`ve seen like the brown collen,
that i met in the country down

as sho onward sped sure i sratched my head
and i said with a feeling rare,
ay”, says i to a p-sser by,
who`s the maid with the nut-brown hair?”
he smiled at me, and then says he:
she`s the gem of ireland`s crown,
young rosie mccann, from the banks of the bann,
she`s the star of the county down”.

from bantry bay up to derry quay,
and from galway to dublin town,
na maid i’ve seen like the brown collen,
that i met in the county down

at the harvest fair i`ll be surely there
and i dress in my sunday clothes
with my shoes shone bright and my hat upright
and a smile from my nut-brown rose.
no pipe i smoke, no horse i`ll yoke
let me plough with a rust turn brown
till a smiling bride by my own fireside
sits the star of the county down

from bantry bay up to derry quay,
and from galway to dublin town,
na maid i`ve seen like the brown colleen,
that i met in the county down

from bantry bay up to derry quay,
and from galway to dublin town,
no maid i`ve seen like the brown colleen,
that i met in the county down
