    wealth,
    In Sweet Tournafulla town.
    (3)
    The girl I love is beautiful,
    She is true and full of game.
    Fearing not surviving her,
    I can't pen down her name.
    For it was many the Sunday evening,
    We rambled up and down.
    With the boys of that beloved spot,
    Called Sweet Tournafulla town.
    The author of this song is not known.
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
