On one fine August morning
To escape the city heat
I travelled up to Mayo
For the races on the beach
As I gathered with the crowd
By the waters of Clew Bay
I met a red haired beauty
And she stole my heart away
Whack for the toora loora laddies
Whack for the toora lads
I fell in love with a girl
I met on the Carrownisky Strand
In the shadow of Croagh Patrick
We watched those ponies run
And arm and arm we strolled
To watch the setting of the sun
I asked her if she'd marry
And come away with me
But she would never leave
Her little cottage by the sea
Whack for the toora loora laddies
Whack for the toora lads
I fell in love with a girl
I met on the Carrownisky Strand
Now I'm back in Dublin City
Lonesome and forlorn
I can't forget our happy time
Together on the shore
One thing is for certain
As soon as I can leave
I'm going back to Mayo
And that cottage by the sea
Whack for the toora loora laddies
Whack for the toora lads
I'm going back to wed that girl
On the Carrownisky Strand
