Eva Marie from Ballymaloe
[ Cally Krallman / Randy Wills ]
She tends the garden, each day for hours
Gives loving care to spring’s blooming flowers.
In her calico dress, with a white satin bow
I watch her all day, from the window.
Sometimes she sings in the bright morning air
The voice of an angel can’t even compare.
Forever enchanting, I can’t let her go
The girl from the house of Ballymaloe.
CHORUS:
Beautiful beautiful Eva Marie,
Gentle and kind how lovely is she.
Our Love will blossom from seeds that we sow
My Eva Marie from Ballymaloe.
A halo of flowers, shines in her hair
Just like a queen, a crown she might wear.
Lips of red garnet, skin all aglow
I’d give all I have, to be her beau.
Today is the day, I’ll ask for her hand
Til death do we part, let me be her man.
We’ll tend to our garden, that makes our love grow
I’ll marry the girl, from Ballymaloe.
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
