Galway girl?

Question

so i know a galway girl is a girl that lives in galway!

but is there anything particular about them!

Answer 1

Well i took a strole on the old long walk

on the day ia ia ay

i meet a little girl and we stopped to talk

on a grand soft dai ai ia ay

And i ask you friend whats a fella to do

becoz her hair was black and her eyes were blue

And i knew right then i'd been taking a whirl

Down the Salthill prom with a ROSCOMMON girl

HO

Were halfway there when the rain came down

On the day ia ai ay

She asked me up to her flat down town

On a grand soft day ai ai ay

And i ask you friend whats a fella to do

Coz her hair was black and her eyes were blue

And i took her hand and i gave her a twirl

and i lost my heart to a ROSCOMMON girl

Ho

And when i woke up i was all alone

with a broken heart and a ticket home

And i ask you now tell me what would you do

Ha if her hair was black and her eyes were blue

Coz i'd travelled around

I've been all over this world

Course ive never seen nothing like a ROSCOMMON  girl

Answer 2

The accent maybe? "Galway girl" really is just a stereotype (I have friends from Galway and they don't conform to the blue eyes, black hair rule) it's a beautiful song though.

A lot of people from Galway can speak Irish and play traditional music (maybe that's a stereotype too?)

Answer 3

I suppose they're down to earth and traditional

but I don't know anybody with black hair and blue eyes,always green eyes,or blonde hair haha

Answer 4

my aunts/mam are galway girls (women at this stage) and outta the 5 of em, 2 hav blu eyes and black...all the rest are blonde...they are the funniest, nicest pplu cud meet!!!

Answer 5

Very down to earth. Great nightclubs in the city too.

Best looking women in Ireland and are loyal.
