wild rover - ireland's finest lyrics

Loading...

well, i’ve been a wild rover for many a year
and i spent all my money on whiskey and beer
and now i’m returning with the 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 nay no more

well, i went to an ale-house i used to frequent
and i told the landlady my money was spent
well, 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 nay no more

i took out from my pockets ten sovereigns bright
and the landlady’s eyes opened wide with delight
she said “i have the whiskey and wines of the best
and the words i just told you were only in jest.”

and it’s no, nay, never
no nay never no more
will i play the wild rover
no never nay no more
(here we go!)
and it’s no, nay, never
no nay never no more
will i play the wild rover
no never nay no more

i’ll go home to my parents, confess what i’ve done
and i’ll ask them to pardon their prodigal son
oh, and if they caress 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 nay no more
(one last time!)
and it’s no, nay, never
no nay never no more
will i play the wild rover
no never nay no more
