Karaoké The Galway Shawl Brier

At Orenmore in the County Galway

One pleasant evening in the month of May

I spied a damsel she was young and handsome

And her beauty fairly took my breath away

She wore no jewels nor costly diamonds

No paint or powder no none at all

She wore a bonnet with a ribbon on it

And round her shoulder was a Galway Shawl

She kept on walking and she kept on talking

'Till her father's cottage came into view

Says she come in Sir and meet me father

And play to please him the Foggy Dew

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 came into her eyes of blue

She wore no jewels nor costly diamonds

No paint or powder no none at all

She wore a bonnet with a ribbon on it

And round her shoulder was a Galway Shawl

'Twas early early all in the morning

I hit the road for old Donegal

She cried and kissed me and she said goodbye Sir

And my heart remained with that Galway shawl

She wore no jewels nor costly diamonds

No paint or powder no none at all

She wore a bonnet with a ribbon on it

And round her shoulder was a Galway Shawl
