[00:00.00]The Star Of The County Down - Celtic Thunder
[00:04.78]In Banbridge Town near the County Down
[00:06.60]One morning last July
[00:08.31]Down a boreen green came a sweet colleen
[00:10.56]And she smiled as she passed me by
[00:12.45]She looked so sweet
[00:13.57]From her two bare feet
[00:14.61]To the sheen of her nutbrown hair
[00:16.44]Such a coaxing elf
[00:17.53]Sure I shook myself
[00:18.36]For to see I was really there
[00:20.49]From Bantry Bay down to Derry Quay
[00:22.51]And from Galway to Dublin Town
[00:24.50]No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
[00:26.49]That I met in the County Down
[00:28.74]As she onward sped
[00:29.59]Sure I scratched my head
[00:30.61]And I looked with a feeling rare
[00:32.63]And I says says I
[00:33.57]To a passer by
[00:34.43]Who's the maid with the nutbrown hair
[00:36.40]He smiled at me and he said said he
[00:38.45]She's the gem of Ireland's crown
[00:40.49]Young Rosie mccann from
[00:41.66]The banks of the Bann
[00:42.68]She's the Star of the County Down
[00:44.62]From Bantry Bay down to Derry Quay
[00:46.43]And from Galway to Dublin Town
[00:48.40]No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
[00:50.60]That I met in the County Down
[01:00.54]I've travelled a bit but was never smit
[01:02.42]Since my roving career began
[01:04.56]But fair and square
[01:05.65]I surrendered there
[01:06.54]To the charms of Rose mccann
[01:08.51]I'd a heart to let
[01:09.60]And no tenant yet
[01:10.41]Had I met in a shawl or gown
[01:12.61]But in she went
[01:13.50]And I asked no rent
[01:14.49]From the Star of the County Down
[01:16.51]From Bantry Bay down to Derry Quay
[01:18.46]And from Galway to Dublin Town
[01:20.54]No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
[01:22.51]That I met in the County Down
[01:28.60]At the harvest fair
[01:29.61]She'll be surely there
[01:30.62]So I'll dress in my Sunday clothes
[01:33.01]With my shoes shone bright
[01:34.19]And my hat cocked right
[01:35.44]For a smile from my nutbrown rose
[01:37.88]No pipe I'll smoke
[01:39.25]No horse I'll yoke
[01:40.44]'Til my plough is a rus coloured brown
[01:44.18]'Til a smiling bride
[01:45.10]By my own fireside
[01:45.99]Sits the Star of the County Down
[01:48.23]From Bantry Bay down to Derry Quay
[01:50.13]And from Galway to Dublin Town
[01:52.22]No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
[01:53.86]That I met in the County Down
[01:56.19]From Bantry Bay down to Derry Quay
[01:58.10]And from Galway to Dublin Town
[02:00.15]No maid I've seen like the brown colleen
[02:04.61]That I met in the County Down
