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 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 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 every day" And it's no, nay, never No, nay, never, no more Will I play the wild rover No, never, no more I then took from me pocket ten sovereigns bright And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight She says "I have whiskeys and wines of the best" And the words that you told me 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 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 play the wild rover No, never, no more And it's no, nay, never No, nay, never, no more Will I play the wild rover No, never, no more
