Galway Races

As I went down to Galway Town
To seek for recreation
On the seventeenth of August
Me mind being elevated

There were passengers assembled
With their tickets at the station
And me eyes began to dazzle
And they off to see the races

With me wack fol the do fol
The diddle idle day
There were passengers from Limerick
And passengers from Nenagh

The boys of Connemara
And the Clare unmarried maiden
There were people from Cork City
Who were loyal, true and faithful

Who brought home the Fenian prisoners
From dying in foreign nations
And it's there you'll see the pipers
And the fiddlers competing

And the sporting wheel of fortune

And the four and twenty quarters
And there's others without scruple
Pelting wattles at poor Maggie

And her father well contented
And he gazing at his daughter
And it's there you'll see the jockeys
And they mounted on so stably

The pink, the blue, the orange, and green
The colors of our nation
The time it came for starting
All the horses seemed impatient

Their feet they hardly touched the ground
The speed was so amazing!
There was half a million people there
Of all denominations
The Catholic, the Protestant, the Jew, the Presbyterian

Yet there was no animosity
No matter what persuasion
But failte hospitality
Inducing fresh acquaintance
