One fine day in Waterford
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
There was wine and punch a-plenty
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
A house full of fine maidens
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
And I drinking to their health
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom

I eloped with a girl from Clare
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
And three from Tipperary
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Their parents were not happy
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
No indeed, not one bit pleased
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom

I will go to Carrick tomorrow
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
With a maiden on my arm
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
And through the gap we'll travel
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Get a priest without delay
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom

One fine day in Waterford
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
There was wine and punch a-plenty
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
A house full of fine maidens
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
And I drinking to their health
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
