Wild Rover Lyrics

I´ve been a wild rover fo many´s the year

And I´ve spent all me money on whiskey and beer

And now I´m returning with gold in great store

And I´ll never will play the wild rover no more

I went into a alehouse I used to frequent

And I told the landlady my money was spent

I asked her for credit she answered me "Nay

Such a custom like yours I can have every day"

I broght up from me pockets ten sovereigns bright

And the landlady´s eyes opened wide with delight

She said: "I have whiskies and whines of the best

And the words that you´ve told me were only in jest

I´ll go back to my parents confessed what I´ve done

And I´ll ask them to pardon their prodigal son

And if they´ve caressed me, as oftimes before

I never will play the wild rover no more

And it´s no, nay, never

No, nay, never, no more

Will I play the wild rover

No, never, no more
