[00:00.137]Star of the County Down -Haeredium
[00:19.943]In banbridge town in the county down
[00:22.119]One morning last July
[00:24.692]From a boreen green came a sweet colleen
[00:27.21]And she smiled as she passed me by
[00:29.502]She looked so sweet from her two bare feet
[00:31.689]To the sheen of her nut brown hair
[00:34.232]Such a coaxing elf sure I shook myself
[00:36.474]For to see I was really there
[00:38.990]From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay
[00:41.272]And from Galway to Dublin Town
[00:43.885]No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
[00:46.126]That I met in the county down
[00:53.497]As she onward sped sure I scratched my head
[00:55.606]And I looked with a feelin'rare
[00:58.247]And I say's say's I to a passer by
[01:00.631]Whose the maid with the nut brown hair
[01:03.31]He smiled at me and he says's say's he
[01:05.395]That's the gem of Ireland's crown
[01:07.852]Young Rosie McCann from the banks of the Bann
[01:10.132]She's the star of the county down
[01:12.725]From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and
[01:15.189]From Galway to Dublin Town
[01:17.529]No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
[01:19.666]That I met in the county down
[01:31.875]At the Harvest Fair she'll be surely there
[01:34.182]And I'll dress in my Sunday clothes
[01:36.551]With my shoes shone bright and my hat cocked right
[01:38.881]For a smile from my nut brown Rose
[01:41.345]No pipe I'll smoke no horse I'll yoke
[01:43.670]Till my plough turns rust coloured brown
[01:46.202]Till a smiling bride by my own fireside
[01:48.520]Sits the Star of the county down
[01:51.98]From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and
[01:53.516]From Galway to Dublin Town
[01:55.779]No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
[01:58.79]That I met in the county down
[02:00.581]From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay
[02:02.863]And from Galway to Dublin Town
[02:05.363]No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
[02:07.721]That I met in the county down
[02:10.182]From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay
[02:12.473]And from Galway to Dublin Town
[02:15.34]No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
[02:17.314]That I met in the county down
