THE WILD ROVER<br />

I've been a wild rover for many's the year<br />

And I've spent all my money on whisky and beer.<br />

But now I'm returning with money in great store<br />

And I never will play the wild rover no more.<br />

And it's no nay never, no nay never no more<br />

Will I play the wild rover no never no more.<br />

I went into an ale-house I used to frequent<br />

And I told the landlady my money was spent.<br />

I asked her for credit, She answered ne: "Nay,<br />

Such a custom as yours I can have ev'ry day".<br />

And it's no nay never, no nay never no more<br />

Will I play the wild rover no never no more.<br />

Then I took from my pocket ten sovereigns bright<br />

And the lanlady's eyes opened winde with delight;<br />

She said: "I have whisky and wine of the best<br />

And the words that you told me were only in jest".<br />

And it's no nay never, no nay never no more<br />

Will I play the wild rover no never no more.<br />

I'll go home to my parents confess what i have done<br />

And I'll ask them to pardon the prodigal son,<br />

And when thes caress me as oft-times before,<br />

I never will play the wild rover no more.<br />

And it's no nay never, no nay never no more<br />

Will I play the wild rover no never no more.
