Banbridge Town in the County Down One morning last July From a boreen green came a sweet colleen And she smiled as she passed me by She looked so sweet from her two bare feet To the sheen of her nut brown hair Such a coaxing elf, sure I shook myself For to see I was really there From Bantry Bay into Derry Quay From Galway to Dublin Town No maid I've seen like the fair colleen That I met in the County Down
As she onward sped, sure I scratched my head And I looked with a feelin' rare And I says, says I, to a passer-by Who's the maid with the nut brown hair? He smiled at me and he says, says he That'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 into Derry Quay From Galway to Dublin Town No maid I've seen like the fair colleen That I met in the County Down
The Harvest Fair she'll be surely there And I'll dress in my Sunday clothes With my shoes shone bright and my hat cocked right For a smile from my nut brown rose No pipe I'll smoke, no horse I'll yoke Till my plough turns rust coloured brown Till my smiling bride by my own fireside Sits the star of the County Down From Bantry Bay into Derry Quay From Galway to Dublin Town No maid I've seen like the fair colleen That I met in the County Down From Bantry Bay into Derry Quay From Galway to Dublin Town No maid I've seen like the fair colleen That I met in the County Down
