Hey hey

I was twenty four years old

When I met the woman I would call my own

Twenty two grand kids now growing old

In that house that your brother bought ya

On the summer day when I proposed

I made that wedding ring from dentist gold

I asked her father but her daddy said no

You can't marry my daughter

She and I went on the run

Don't care about religion

I'm gonna marry the woman I love

Down by the Wexford border

She was Nancy Mulligan

I was William Sheeran

She took my name and then we were one

Down by the Wexford border

Hey hey

Well met her at Guy's in the Second World War

She was working on a soldier's ward

Never had I seen such beauty before

The moment that I saw her

Nancy was my yellow rose

We got married wearing borrowed clothes

Eight children now growing old

Five sons and three daughters

She and I went on the run

Don't care about religion

I'm gonna marry the woman I love

Down by the Wexford border

She was Nancy Mulligan

I was William Sheeran

She took my name and then we were one

Down by the Wexford border

Lalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalala

From her snow white streak in her jet black hair

Over sixty years I've been loving her

Now we're sat by the fire in our old armchairs

You know Nancy I adore ya

From a farm boy born near Belfast town

I never worried about the king and crown

'Cause I found my heart upon the southern ground

There's no difference I assure ya

She and I went on the run

Don't care about religion

I'm gonna marry the woman I love

Down by the Wexford border

She was Nancy Mulligan

I was William Sheeran

She took my name and then we were one

Down by the Wexford border

Lalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalala
