Galway Bay Lyrics - Singles - John Mcdermott

If you ever go across the sea to Ireland 

Then maybe at the closing of your day 

You will sit and watch the moon rise over Claddagh 

And see the sun go down on Galway Bay 

 

Just to hear again the ripple of the trout stream 

The women in the meadow making hay 

And to sit beside a turf fire in the cabin 

And watch the barefoot gossoons at their play 

 

For the breezes blowing o'er the seas from Ireland 

Are perfumed by the heather as they bloom 

And the women in the uplands digging praties 

Speak a language that the strangers do not know 

 

For the stranger came and tried to teach us their way 

They scorned us just for being what we are 

But they might as well go chasing after moonbeams 

Or light a penny candle from a star
