Lyrics
Paul Kelly (Pól Ó Ceallaigh) Near Banbridge town, in the County Down One morning in July Down a bóithrín green came a sweet Cailín 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 I'd to shake myself To make sure I was standing there From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay And from Galway to Dublin town No maid I’ve seen like the sweet Cailín That I met in the County Down From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay And from Galway to Dublin town No maid I've seen like the sweet Cailín That I met in the County Down At the harvest fair I'll be surely there And I’ll dress my Sunday clothes And I'll try sheep's eyes and deludhering lies On the heart of the nut-brown Rose No pipe I'll smoke, no horse I'll yoke Though the plough with the rust in my turns brown Till a smiling bride by my own fireside Sits the star of the County Down
