Lyrics

Of a day -I-ay-I-ay

Reflecting on a memorable day

I met a little girl and we stopped to talk

Describing a meeting with a girl and engaging in conversation

On a grand soft day -I-ay-I-ay

Recalling the day with a pleasant atmosphere

And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do

Pondering what to do in the given situation

'Cause her hair was black and her eyes were blue

Noticing the girl's black hair and blue eyes

And I knew right then I'd be takin' a whirl

Realizing an immediate attraction and interest

'Down the Salthill Prom with a Galway girl

Expressing the intention to stroll down Salthill Promenade with the Galway girl


We were halfway there when the rain came down

Encountering rain halfway through the journey

Of a day -I-ay-I-ay

Repeating the earlier reflection on the memorable day

And she took me up to her flat downtown

Being invited to the girl's apartment in the city

On a grand soft day -I-ay-I-ay

Reiterating the pleasant atmosphere of the day

And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do

Pondering the appropriate actions in the current situation

'Cause her hair was black and her eyes were blue

Emphasizing the girl's distinctive features

So I took her hand and I gave her a twirl

Taking a playful and affectionate action with the girl

And then I lost my heart to a Galway girl

Expressing the emotional impact of falling in love with the Galway girl


When I woke up I was all alone

Waking up alone with a broken heart

With a broken heart and a ticket home

Expressing the emotional aftermath of the relationship

And I ask you friend, what would you do

Pondering the hypothetical response of a friend in a similar situation

If her hair was black and her eyes were blue

Reiterating the impact of the girl's features on emotions

See I've traveled around I've been all over the world

Reflecting on extensive travel experiences and highlighting the uniqueness of the Galway girl

Boys I ain't never seen nothin' like a Galway girl

Expressing awe at the exceptional qualities of the Galway girl
