Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. 

You can watch me singing my song here: https://youtu.be/84qcUDeKWDs.

You can listen to it or download it on SoundCloud at https://soundcloud.com/user-240756199/galway-town-2

If you enjoyed listening to my song, it would be great if you could give a donation to help people who are homeless, or in danger of becoming homeless, please. 

If you want to sing along, the lyrics are:

When the rain falls down in Galway town
Still a great place to be around
Have your tea in the GBC
Or listen to tunes in Tig Coili in Galway town

Chorus:
Galway town, town of the tribes, town of poets singers and scribes.
Galway town, town of the tribes,
you're my Galway town

When the snow falls down in Galway town , still a great place to be around , the Christmas market and the Ferris wheel, plenty of food and the German beer in Galway town.

Chorus

When the sun shines down in Galway town such a great place to be around, take the Corrib princess for a river trip . back to McDonaghs for the fish and chips in Galway town

Chorus

When the sun shines down in Galway town no better place to be around, walk the prom, kick the wall, swim at Blackrock then back in for a stroll around the docks in Galway town.

Chorus

Nuair a bhíonn an ghrian ag scoilteadh na gcloch,,
eirigh suas ar maidin moch, bí le do cháirde , cosa in airde,  i nGaillimh: baile na dreabh

Chorus
