I have been a wild rover for many's a year And I spent all my money on whisky and beer But now I'm returning with gold and great store And I ne'er shall be called wild rover no more
Wild roving I'll give over Wild roving I'll give o'er And I ne'er shall be called wild rover no more
I went into an alehouse I used to frequent And I told the landlady all my money was spent I asked her for credit, she answered me nay Saying, “Custom as yours I can have any day”
Wild roving I'll give over Wild roving I'll give o'er And I ne'er shall be called wild rover no more
I went into my pockets, pulled out sovereigns bright And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight She says, “I have whiskies and wines of the best And the words that I spoke sure were only in jest”
Wild roving I'll give over Wild roving I'll give o'er And I ne'er shall be called wild rover no more
I'll go back to my parents, confess what I've done And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son And if they caress me as oft-times before Then I ne'er shall be called wild rover no more
Wild roving I'll give over Wild roving I'll give o'er And I ne'er shall be called wild rover no moreTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
