The Galway Girl (Acoustic Live) Steve Earle

I took a stroll around the old long walk
Of a day-i-ay-i-ay
Met a little girl, stopped to talk
Of a fine soft day

I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do?
Her hair is black and her eyes are blue
And I knew right then, I'd be takin' a whirl
Around the Salthill prom with a Galway girl, ooh

We were halfway there when the rain came down
Of a day-ay-i-ay
Asked me up to her flat downtown
Of a fine soft day-i

I ask you, man, what's a fella to do?
Ooh, her hair is black and her eyes are blue
So I took her hand and I give her a twirl
And I lost my heart to a Galway girl, ooh

When I woke up, I was all alone
With a broken heart and a ticket home
I ask you now, tell me, what would you do
If her eyes were black and her hair was blue?
'Cause I've traveled around, oh, I've been all over this world
Boys, I ain't never seen nothin' like a Galway girl, oh
