Joe Rian - Glandore Girl Lyrics

She's a Glandore girl, sailing by the sea
Prettiest thing you ever see
She doesn't need a net, the fish jump In
She doesn't need a sail for the mighty wind
Doesn't need a rudder she steers with her smile
Prettiest girl in that Glandore town

She's a Glandore girl, sailing by the sea
Prettiest thing you ever see

Her daddy catches mackerel down by the wharf
Momma bakes soda bread at union hall
She's a straight a student never gets a "B"
Prettiest thing you ever see

And all the boys ask her - beg and plead
Would you please marry me
And all the boys ask her - beg and plead
Would you please marry me

Her brother is a hurler for the local team
Her sisters an Irish dance champion
That Glandore girl's got everybody's eye
She's the best catch in that whole damn town

Here daddy asks her - begs and pleads
Please don't marry a yachty
Here daddy asks her - begs and pleads
Please don't marry a yachty

She's a Glandore girl, sailing by the sea
Prettiest thing you ever see

She couldn't help it her heart had been won
She's gonna sail in the setting sun
They said their vows and off they wed
Never to be seen or heard from again
Avoiding adam and huggin' eve
