The Wild Rover |
| I’ve been a wild rover for many’s the year |
| And I’ve spent all me money on whiskey and beer |
| But now I’m returning with gold great store |
| And I never will pay the wild rover no more |
| And it’s no, nay, never |
| No, nay, never no more |
| Will I pay the wild rover |
| No, never no more |
| I went into an alehouse I used to frequent |
| And I told the landlady me money was spent |
| I asked her for credit, she answered me «nay» |
| «Such a custom as yours I can have any day» |
| And it’s no, nay, never |
| No, nay, never no more |
| Will I pay the wild rover |
| No, never no more |
| I took out from me pocket ten sovereigns bright |
| And the landlady’s eyes opened wide with delight |
| She said «I have whiskeys and wines of the best |
| Sure the words that I spoke they were only in jest |
| And it’s no, nay, never |
| No, nay, never no more |
| Will I pay the wild rover |
| No, never no more |
| I’ll go home to my parents, confess what I’d done |
| And I’ll ask them to pardon their prodigal son |
| And when they’ve caressed me as ofttimes before |
| I never will play the wild rover no more |
| And it’s no, nay, never |
| No, nay, never no more |
| Will I pay the wild rover |
| No, never no more |
| And it’s no, nay, never |
| No, nay, never no more |
| Will I pay the wild rover |
| No, never no more |
