She and I went on the run, don't care about religion
G C G C D Em
I'm gonna marry the woman I love, down by the Wexford border

She was Nancy Mulligan, and I was William Sheeran

She took my name and then we were one, down by the Wexford border

From her snow white streak in her jet black hair, over sixty years I've been loving her
