It was on the road to Dublin that I met a pretty girl
She looked so good
That it was quite disarming so I had to stop and
Ask if she wanted to come home or if she had to stay until
The morning and sure she said
Chorus
Right alright sure we'll get along tonight
And we'll think about each other in the morning
Is there a way, no way, I can take you into day
So you'll have to think about me when you're yawning
But she took to me quite lovingly
And she had so much to say
And I never felt the cold as it was growing
And she turned around and said to me
I think I've lost my way
And suddendly I knew my heart was blowing
Chorus
We came across a crossroad and she asked me to get down
And I dance a merry jig amongst the hawthorns
I never felt her hands as she move my wallet brown
So we danced some reels and jigs until the dawning
Chorus
And now that my story has come to an end
She up and she left me without warning
So here I am today without a penny to my name
And I wished I never met her in the morning
She looked so good
That it was quite disarming so I had to stop and
Ask if she wanted to come home or if she had to stay until
The morning and sure she said
Chorus
Right alright sure we'll get along tonight
And we'll think about each other in the morning
Is there a way, no way, I can take you into day
So you'll have to think about me when you're yawning
But she took to me quite lovingly
And she had so much to say
And I never felt the cold as it was growing
And she turned around and said to me
I think I've lost my way
And suddendly I knew my heart was blowing
Chorus
We came across a crossroad and she asked me to get down
And I dance a merry jig amongst the hawthorns
I never felt her hands as she move my wallet brown
So we danced some reels and jigs until the dawning
Chorus
And now that my story has come to an end
She up and she left me without warning
So here I am today without a penny to my name
And I wished I never met her in the morning
