The Parting Glass |
| Of all the money that e’er I spent |
| I’ve spent it in good company |
| And all the harm that ever I did |
| Alas it was to none but me And all I’ve done for want of wit |
| To memory now I can’t recall |
| So fill to me the parting glass |
| Good night and joy be with you all |
| If I had money enough to spend |
| And leisure to sit awhile |
| There is a fair maid in the town |
| That sorely has my heart beguiled |
| Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips |
| I own she has my heart enthralled |
| So fill to me the parting glass |
| Good night and joy be with you all |
| Oh, all the comrades that e’er I had |
| They’re sorry for my going away |
| And all the sweethearts that e’er I had |
| They’d wish me one more day to stay |
| But since it falls unto my lot |
| That I should rise and you should not |
| I’ll gently rise and softly call |
| Good night and joy be with you all |
