She played the fiddle in an Irish bandBut she fell in love with an English manKissed her on the neck and then I took her by the handSaid, "baby, I just want to dance"I meet her on Grafton street right outside of the barShe shared a cigarette with me while her brother played the guitarShe 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 funShe got Arthur on the table with Johnny riding as a shotgunChatted some more, one more drink at the barThen put Van on the jukebox, got up to danceYou know, she played the fiddle in an Irish bandBut she fell in love with an English manKissed her on the neck and then I took her by the handSaid, "baby, I just want to dance"With my pretty little Galway girlYou're my pretty little Galway girlYou know she beat me at darts and then she beat me at poolAnd then she kissed me like there was nobody else in the roomAs last orders were called was when she stood on the stoolAfter dancing to Kaleigh, singing to trad tunesI never heard Carrickfergus ever sang so sweetA capella in the bar using her feet for a beatOh, I could have that voice playing on repeat for a weekAnd in this packed out room swear she was singing to meYou know, she played the fiddle in an Irish bandBut she fell in love with an English manKissed her on the neck and then I took her by the handSaid, "baby, I just want to dance"My pretty little Galway girlMy, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girlMy, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girlMy, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girlAnd now we've outstayed our welcome and it's closing timeI was holding her hand, her hand was holding mineOur coats both smell of smoke, whisky and wineAs we fill up our lungs with the cold air of the nightI walked her home then she took me insideTo finish some Doritos and another bottle of wineI swear I'm gonna put you in a song that I writeAbout a Galway girl and a perfect nightShe played the fiddle in an Irish bandBut she fell in love with an English manKissed her on the neck and then I took her by the handSaid, "baby, I just want to dance"My pretty little Galway girlMy, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girlMy, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girlMy, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girl, hey
