Tears For Beers - Star Of The County Down Lyrics

Close to 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 neat from 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 really there.

From bantry bay up to derry quay

And from galway to dublin town

Na maid i`ve seen like the brown collen

That i met in the country down

As sho onward sped sure i sratched my head

And i said with a feeling rare

Ay" says i to a passer by

Who`s the maid with the nut-brown hair?"

He smiled at me and then says he:

She`s the gem of ireland`s crown

Young rosie mccann from the banks of the bann

She`s the star of the county down".

From bantry bay up to derry quay

And from galway to dublin town

Na maid i've seen like the brown collen

That i met in the county down

At the harvest fair i`ll be surely there

And i dress in my sunday clothes

With my shoes shone bright and my hat upright

And a smile from my nut-brown rose.

No pipe i smoke no horse i`ll yoke

Let me plough with a rust turn brown

Till a smiling bride by my own fireside

Sits the star of the county down

From bantry bay up to derry quay

And from galway to dublin town

Na maid i`ve seen like the brown colleen

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 brown colleen

That i met in the county down
