Star Of county down

-3 5 5 5 -4 5 6 6 -6
In Banbridge Town in the County Down

One morning last July,
-3 5 5 5 -4 5 6 6 -6
From boreen green came a sweet colleen
6 -6 -7 -6 6 5 -4 5
And she smiled as she passed me by.

-3 5 5 5 -4 5 6 6 -6
She looked so sweet from her two bare feet
6 -6 -7 -6 6 5 -4 -3 -4 -4
To the sheen of her nut brown hair.

Such a coaxing elf, sure I shook myself
6 -6 -7 -6 6 5 -4 5 5
For to see I was really there.

From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and
-6 -7 -6 6 5 -4 -3 -4 -4
From Galway to Dublin Town,
6 5 5 5 -4 5 6 6 -6
No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
6 -6 -7 -6 6 5 -4 5 5
That I met in the County Down.
