Banbridge Town in the County Down One morning last July From a boreen green came a sweet colleen As 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 l shook myself For to see I was really there From Bantry Bay up to 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 feeling rare And I says, says I, to a passerby Who's the maid with the nut-brown hair? He smiled at me and he say, 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 up to 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 the nut-brown rose No pipe I'll smoke, no horse I'll yoke Till my plough turns a rust colored brown Till my smiling bride by my own fireside Sits the star of the County Down From Bantry Bay up to 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 up to Derry Quay From Galway to Dublin Town No maid I've seen like the fair colleen That I met in the County Down
