I took a stroll down the old long walk 
Of the day I-ay – I – ay, 
I met a little girl and we stopped to talk 
On a grand soft day - I - ay. 

And I ask you friends, what’s a fella to do ? 
Cause her hair was black and her eyes were blue 
And I knew right then, I’d be taking a whirl 
Down the Salthill Prom with a Galway Girl 

We were halfway there when the rain came down 
On the day, I – ay – I ay 
She took me up to her flat downtown 
On a grand soft day I – ay 

And I ask you friends, what’s a fella to do? 
Because her hair was black and her eyes were blue 
So I took her hand, and I gave her a twirl 
And I lost my heart to a Galway Girl 

When I woke up I was all alone 
With a broken heart and a ticket home 
And I ask you friend, what would you do? 
If her hair was black and her eyes were blue 

See I’ve travelled around, I’ve been all over the world 
Boys, 
But I ain't never seen nothing like a Galway girl – Hey !
