She played the fiddle in an Irish band
But she fell in love with an English man
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
Said baby I just wanna dance
I met her on Grafton street right outside of the bar
She shared a cigarette with me while her brother played the guitar
She asked me what does It mean the Gaelic ink on your arm
Said It was ONE of my friend's songs do you want to drink on
She took Jamie as a chaser Jack for the fun
She Got Arthur on the table with Johnny riding as shot gun
Chatted some more ONE more drink at the bar
Then put Van on the jukebox Got up to dance you know
She played the fiddle in an Irish band
But she fell in love with an English man
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
Said baby I just wanna dance
With my pretty little Galway Girl
You're my pretty little Galway Girl
Hey
You know she beat me at darts and then she beat me at pool
And then she kissed me like there was nobody else in the room
You know she played the fiddle in an Irish band
But she fell in love with an English man
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
Said baby I just wanna dance
My pretty little Galway girl
My my my my my my my Galway girl
My my my my my my my Galway girl
My my my my my my my Galway girl
Now we've outstayed our welcome and It's closing time
I was holding her hand her hand was holding mine
Our coats both smell of smOKe whIsky and wine
As we fIll up our lungs wIth the cold aIr of the nIght
I walked her home then she toOK me insIde
FinIshed some DorItos and another bottle of wine
I swear I'm Gonna put you in a song that I wrIte
About a Galway gIrl and a perfect nIght
She played the fIddle in an IrIsh band
But she fell in love wIth an EnglIsh man
KIssed her on the neck and then I toOK her by the hand
SaId baby I just wanna dance
My pretty lIttle Galway gIrl
My my my my my my my Galway gIrl
My my my my my my my Galway gIrl
My my my my my my my Galway gIrl
Hey
