eligible bachelor - the fógues lyrics

[verse 1]
i’ll tell you of a story and it shouldn’t take too long
condensing all my hardship into one three minute song
i’m wondering after all these years what am i doing wrong?
be helpful, try and move my cause along

[verse 2]
more eligible bachelors, you’d be hard pushed to find
i’d settle for a pretty maid with dowry undefined
i’d treat her like a lady and i’d take her as my bride
unfortunately no one has applied

[verse 3]
the girl from tipp was quite a hit, but looks like she might snore
marie from carrickfergus was a self*indulgent bore
that girl from kerry of golden hair she wanted to elope
with cows to milk i told her not at all
[chorus]
for i courted all around me and i’ve travelled far and wide
so you ask why there’s no colleen by my side
i’d wed her in the morning and i’d love her ’till i die
but the girl for me has not yet caught my eye

[verse 4]
a girl in every port, they say, is that not good enough?
but to find one to bring home with me has proven to be tough
i know she’s out there somewhere but i still can’t quite decide
should i go and seek or run away and hide?

[chorus]
for i courted all around me and i’ve travelled far and wide
so you ask why there’s no colleen by my side
i’d wed her in the morning and i’d love her ’till i die
but the girl for me has not yet caught my eye
oh yes, i’d wed her in the morning and i’d love her ’till i die
but the girl for me has not yet caught my eye
