Lyrics Star of the County Down

Near Banbridge Town in the County Down
One mornin' last July
Down the boreen green came a sweet colleen
She smiled as she passed me by
She looked so neat with her two bare feet and the sheen of her nut brown hair
Such a coaxing elf
Sure I shook me self for to see I was really there
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and from Galway to Dublin Town
No maid I've seen like the sweet colleen that I met in the County Down
As she onward sped sure I scratched my head and I looked with a feelin' rare
And I said said I to a passer-by
Who's the maid with the nut brown hair
He smiled at me and he said said 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 and from Galway to Dublin Town
No maid I've seen like the sweet colleen that I met in the County Down
At the Harvest Fair she'll be surely there and I'll dress in me Sunday clothes
With me shoe shone bright and me hat cocked right for a smile from the nut brown rose
No pipe I'll smoke and no horse I'll yoke 'till me plough is a rust colored brown
And a smilin' bride by my own fireside sits the star of the County Down
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and from Galway to Dublin Town
No maid I've seen like the sweet colleen that I met in the County Down
From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and from Galway to Dublin Town
No maid I've seen like the sweet colleen that I met in the County Down
