Lyrics
If I was king of Erin's Isle
Had all things at me will
I would roam throughout creation
New comforts to find still
And the comfort I would seek the most
You well may understand
Would be to gain lovely Martha
The flower of sweet Strabane
Her cheeks they are like the roses red
And her eyes are a lovely brown
And over her lily-white shoulders
Her hair comes tumbling down
She is one of the fairest creatures
And famous is her clan
And me heart is fairly captured
By the flower of sweet Strabane
And if I had you Martha
Way down in Inishowen
Or in some lonesome valley
Of the wild woods of Tyrone
I would use me whole endeavour
And I'd strive to work me plan
For to gain me prize and feast me eyes
On the flower of sweet Strabane
