The Fiddle of Galway Bay


1

Thursday morning, 11o clock

Just a few dollars away

of the golden deal

that took me in

on the streets of Galway bay


It took me long

For I found a fiddle

that caughts the rainy day

and shines upon the melancholy

of the streets of Galway bay 


2

I walked along a hugeous store

diddli dan di dee

working hard to avoid

any thinking of

the hardships of today


All things that took my chiddle

I just fiddled them all away

from your diddle di diddle 

di dom ti dee

on the streets of Galway bay



The people say: hey what’s  your fiddle

diddli dom ti dee

it cheers me up for I’m in the gutter

of the streets of Gallway bay

Tell me what’s that riddle,

from your diddly dom ti dee

I’ve walked these streets a thousand times

Now I’m stuck on Galway bay


3

No, I couldn’t think

or push aside

the things that keep my head

from stumbling across that melody

of the streets of Galway bay


I’ve sended my old life goodbye

From now I live today

I just fiddle di diddle 

di dom ti dee

on the streets of Galway bay


Chorus


Bridge

Again and again and again

nothing takes me away

from the fiddle I found laying on the ground

on the streets of Gallway


Again and again and again

nothing takes me away

from that cheerful sound laying on the ground

on the streets of Galway bay


4

In the streets

you’ll hear this fiddle

from your diddli dan di dee

And you see the people

around you twiddle

diddli dom di dee

For one day, a summer day

We’re all  be swimming in this bay 


So let us today

Enjoy this fiddle

this fiddle of Galway bay


Chorus
