MangleFan9000 - Galway Boy lyrics

He played the fiddle in an Irish band
But he fell in love with an English gal
I Kissed him on the neck and then
I took him by the hand
Said, "Honey, I just want to dance"

I met him on Grafton street
Right outside of the bar
He shared a cigarette with me while
His brother played the guitar
He 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?
He took Jamie as a chaser, Jack for the fun
He 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
He played the fiddle in an Irish band
But he fell in love with an English gal
I Kissed him on the neck and then
I took him by the hand
Said, "Honey, I just want to dance"
With my pretty little Galway Boy
You're my pretty little Galway Boy

You know she beat me at darts and
Then he 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 dancing the céili singing to trad tunes
I never heard Carrickfergus ever
Sung so sweet a cappella 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
He played the fiddle in an Irish band
But he fell in love with an English gal
I Kissed him on the neck and then
I took him by the hand
Said, "Honey, I just want to dance"
With my pretty little Galway Boy
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Boy
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Boy
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Boy

And now we've outstayed our welcome
And it's closing time
I was holding his hand
His 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 him home then he 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 Boy and a perfect night

You know
He played the fiddle in an Irish band
But he fell in love with an English gal
I Kissed him on the neck and then
I took him by the hand
Said, "Honey, I just want to dance"
With my pretty little Galway Boy
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Boy
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Boy
My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway Boy
