<pre><font size='+2'>THE STAR OF COUNTY DOWN lyrics THE POGUES</font><br>(Traditional)<br />
Near to Banbridge Town, in the County Down<br />
One morning in July,<br />
Down a boreen green came a sweet colleen,<br />
And she smiled as she passed me by;<br />
Oh, she looked so neat from her two white feet<br />
To the sheen of her nut-brown hair,<br />
Sure the coaxing elf, I`d to shake myself<br />
To make sure I was standing there<br />
<br />
Oh, from Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay,<br />
And from Galway to Dublin town,<br />
No maid I`ve seen like the brown colleen<br />
That I met in the County Down.<br />
<br />
As she onward sped I shook my head<br />
And I gazed with a feeling quare,<br />
And I said, says I, to a passer-by,<br />
`Who`s the maid with the nut-brown hair?`<br />
Oh, he smiled at me, and with pride says he,<br />
`That`s the gem of Ireland`s crown,<br />
She`s young Rosie McCann from the banks of the Bann,<br />
She`s the Star of the County Down.`<br />
<br />
I`ve travelled a bit, but never was hit<br />
Since my roving career began;<br />
But fair and square I surrendered there<br />
To the charms of young Rose McCann.<br />
I`d a heart to let and no tenant yet<br />
Did I meet with in shawl or gown,<br />
But in she went and I asked no rent<br />
From the Star of the County Down.<br />
<br />
At the crossroads fair I`ll be surely there<br />
And I`ll dress in my Sunday clothes<br />
And I`ll try sheep`s eyes, and deludhering lies<br />
On the heart of the nut-brown Rose.<br />
No pipe I`ll smoke, no horse I`ll yoke<br />
Though with rust my plow turns brown,<br />
Till a smiling bride by my own fireside<br />
Sits the Star of the County Down.<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/the_star_of_county_down_lyrics-the_pogues.html" target='_blank'>THE STAR OF COUNTY DOWN lyrics THE POGUES</a></pre>

(Traditional)
Near to Banbridge Town, in the County Down
One morning in July,
Down a boreen green came a sweet colleen,
And she smiled as she passed me by;
Oh, she looked so neat from her two white feet
To the sheen of her nut-brown hair,
Sure the coaxing elf, I`d to shake myself
To make sure I was standing there

Oh, from Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay,
And from Galway to Dublin town,
No maid I`ve seen like the brown colleen
That I met in the County Down.

As she onward sped I shook my head
And I gazed with a feeling quare,
And I said, says I, to a passer-by,
`Who`s the maid with the nut-brown hair?`
Oh, he smiled at me, and with pride says he,
`That`s the gem of Ireland`s crown,
She`s young Rosie McCann from the banks of the Bann,
She`s the Star of the County Down.`

I`ve travelled a bit, but never was hit
Since my roving career began;
But fair and square I surrendered there
To the charms of young Rose McCann.
I`d a heart to let and no tenant yet
Did I meet with in shawl or gown,
But in she went and I asked no rent
From the Star of the County Down.

At the crossroads fair I`ll be surely there
And I`ll dress in my Sunday clothes
And I`ll try sheep`s eyes, and deludhering lies
On the heart of the nut-brown Rose.
No pipe I`ll smoke, no horse I`ll yoke
Though with rust my plow turns brown,
Till a smiling bride by my own fireside
Sits the Star of the County Down.
