Ed Sheeran – Galway Girl

Galway Girl lyrics

She played a 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 friends songs

D’you want to drink on

She took

Jamie is 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

You know, she played a 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 dancin’ to Kayleigh

Singing to trad tunes

I never heard Carrickfergus

Ever sang so sweet

Acapella 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 a 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
