Galway Girl Lyrics - Ed Sheeran

She played the fiddle in an Irish band 

But she fell in love with an English man 

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand 

Said, "Baby, I just want to dance" 

I met her on Grafton street right outside of the bar 

She shared a cigarette with me while her brother played the guitar 

She asked me what does it mean, the Gaelic ink on your arm? 

Said it was one of my friend's songs, do you want to drink on? 

She took Jamie as a chaser, Jack for the fun 

She got Arthur on the table with Johnny riding a shotgun 

Chatted some more, one more drink at the bar 

Then put Van on the jukebox, got up to dance

NEW SONG: Ed Sheeran - 'BLOW' Lyrics ft. Chris Stapleton & Bruno Mars 

You know, she played the fiddle in an Irish band 

But she fell in love with an English man 

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand 

Said, "Baby, I just want to dance" 

With my pretty little Galway Girl 

You're my pretty little Galway Girl 

You know she beat me at darts and then she beat me at pool 

And then she kissed me like there was nobody else in the room 

As last orders were called was when she stood on the stool 

After dancing to Cèilidh singing to trad tunes 

I never heard Carrickfergus ever sang so sweet 

A capella in the bar using her feet for a beat 

Oh, I could have that voice playing on repeat for a week 

And in this packed out room swear she was singing to me 

You know, she played the fiddle in an Irish band 

But she fell in love with an English man 

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand 

Said, "Baby, I just want to dance" 

My pretty little Galway Girl 

My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl 

My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl 

My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl 

And now we've outstayed our welcome and it's closing time 

I was holding her hand, her hand was holding mine 

Our coats both smell of smoke, whisky and wine 

As we fill up our lungs with the cold air of the night 

I walked her home then she took me inside 

To finish some Doritos and another bottle of wine 

I swear I'm gonna put you in a song that I write 

About a Galway Girl and a perfect night 

She played the fiddle in an Irish band 

But she fell in love with an English man 

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand 

Said, "Baby, I just want to dance" 

My pretty little Galway Girl 

My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl 

My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl 

My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Girl
