Irish Songs "The Star of The County Down"

THE STAR OF THE COUNTY DOWN
	Near Banbridge Town in the County Down, one morning last July, Down a boreen green, came a sweet colleen, And she smiled as she passed me by. She looked so sweet in her two bare feet, To the sheen of her nut brown hair. Such a coaxing elf, sure I shook meself, For to see was I really there. From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay, And from Galway to Dublin Town, No maid I've seen like the sweet colleen, That I met in the County Down.

THE STAR OF THE COUNTY DOWN

Near Banbridge Town in the County Down, one morning last July,
Down a boreen green, came a sweet colleen,
And she smiled as she passed me by.
She looked so sweet in her two bare feet,
To the sheen of her nut brown hair.
Such a coaxing elf, sure I shook meself,
For to see was I really there.
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay,
And from Galway to Dublin Town,
No maid I've seen like the sweet colleen,
That I met in the County Down.
