Oh
I've been the wild rover for many's a year
And I spent all me money on whiskey and beer
But now I'm returning with gold in great store
But I never will play the wild rover no more
And it's no, nay, never
No nay never no more
Cause I play the wild rover
No never no more
I went to an ale-house I used to frequent
And the landlady said that me money's all spent.
And I asked her for credit, she answered me "nay
Cause a custom like yours I could have every day."
And it's no, nay, never
No nay never no more
Cause I play the wild rover
No never no more
And it's no, nay, never
No nay never no more
Cause I play the wild rover
No never no more
Well out of me pocket, I took sovereigns bright
And the landlady's eyes they opened wide with delight.
And She said "I have whiskey and yours are the best."
But the words I have spoken, they were only in jest
And it's no, nay, never
No nay never no more
Cause I play the wild rover
No never no more
And it's no, nay, never
No nay never no more
Cause I play the wild rover
No never no more |
