The Wild Rover (Live)

歌詞

I've been a wild rover for many a year And I spent all me money on whiskey and beer But now I'm returning with gold in great store And 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 I went into an ale-house 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 could have any day." And it's no, nay, never No nay never no more Will I play the wild rover No never no more And out of me pocket I took sovereigns bright And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight She said "I have whiskey and wines of the best And the words that I said sure were only in jest." And it's no, nay, never No nay never no more Will I play the wild rover No never no more I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son And if they caress (forgive) me as ofttimes before Then 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
