Blood Or Whiskey

Blood Or Whiskey - Galway Town lyrics

First she came on like a breeze

She came on like the gales of winter

Blew my mind and broke my will

And left me there to die

Then she broke the spell she'd cast

The past was always there behind me

Rolling like the clouds at last

My dreams were in the sky

We went down to Galway town

To see the sights and see the races

All the things she did and said

I kept them in my mind

At the bus stop near the square

Her hair fell down around her face

I swore there was no more in store

I'd nothing left to find

We went down to Galway Town

Just to see what might be happening

We went down to Galway Town

We went down the mountain side

We went down to Galway Town

Just to see what might be happening

On the streets of Galway Town

Best place in the world to hide

We had burgers and some chips

And the rain it came a falling

Took a taxi to Salthill

With bad things in my head

She was wearing lovely clothes

The bouncer came and broke my nose

She said said oh just leave it go

I swore that he was dead

In the morning then

We went to walk along down by the sea shore

Talking about the night before

The music that they played

She said that she wanted home

And never more the world to roam

So that day I went away

And she moved down and stayed

I was in Croke Park

One rainy Sunday near the first of August

Watched the Leinster final

It was Dublin and Kildare

They led us a merry dance

We never even had a chance

At the side I'd say we tried

but swore I didn't care

Some day I'll go back out West

And see the streets we walked together

I don't know now where she is

I don't think that I care

If it gets too bad around here

I'll run like hell from all my problems

If you've got some blues

I'll tell you, you can lose them there
