《Star of the Country》歌词

[00:00:00] Star of the Country - ProSound Tribute Band

[00:00:11] Near Banbridge town in the County Down

[00:00:14] One morning last July

[00:00:16] Down a Boreen green came a sweet coleen

[00:00:19] And she smiled as she passed me by

[00:00:22] She looked so sweet from her two bare

[00:00:24] Feet to the sheen of her nut-brown hair

[00:00:27] Such a coaxing elf sure I shook myself

[00:00:30] For to see I was really there

[00:00:33] From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay

[00:00:36] And from Galway to Dublin town

[00:00:38] No maid I've seen like the brown coleen

[00:00:41] That I met in the County Down

[00:00:47] As she onward sped sure I scratched my head

[00:00:50] And I looked with a feeling rare

[00:00:52] And I says says I to a passer-by:

[00:00:55] Who's the maid with the nut-brown hair

[00:00:58] He smiled at me and he says says he:

[00:01:01] That's the gem of Irelands crown

[00:01:04] Young Rosie McCann from the banks of the Bann

[00:01:07] She's the star of the County Down

[00:01:09] From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay

[00:01:12] And from Galway to Dublin town

[00:01:15] No maid I've seen like the brown coleen

[00:01:17] That I met in the County Down

[00:01:23] I've travelled a bit but never was hit

[00:01:26] Since my roving career began

[00:01:29] But fair and square I surrendered there

[00:01:31] To the charms of young Rose McCann

[00:01:34] I'd a heart to let and no tenant yet

[00:01:37] Did I meet with in shawl or gown

[00:01:40] But in she went and I asked no rent

[00:01:42] From the star of the County Down

[00:01:45] And from Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay

[00:01:48] And from Galway to Dublin town

[00:01:51] No maid I've seen like the brown cailín

[00:01:54] That I met in the County Down

[00:02:21] From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay

[00:02:24] And from Galway to Dublin town

[00:02:27] No maid I've seen like the brown coleen

[00:02:30] That I met in the County Down

[00:02:35] At the crossroads fair I'll be surely there

[00:02:38] And I'll dress in my Sunday clothes

[00:02:41] And I'll try sheep's eyes and deludhering lies

[00:02:43] On the heart of the nut-brown rose

[00:02:46] No pipe I'll smoke no horse I'll yoke

[00:02:49] Though with rust my plow turns brown

[00:02:52] Till a smiling bride by my own fireside

[00:02:55] Sits the star of the County Down

[00:02:58] From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay

[00:03:00] And from Galway to Dublin town

[00:03:03] No maid I've seen like the brown coleen

[00:03:06] That I met in the County Down

[00:03:09] And from Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay

[00:03:11] And from Galway to Dublin town

[00:03:14] No maid I've seen like the brown cailín

[00:03:17] That I met in the County Down
