I've been a wild rover for many a year, And I've spent all me money on whiskey and beer But now I'm returning with gold in great store, And I promise to 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 to an alehouse I used to frequent, And I told the landlady my money was spent I asked her for credit, she answered me, 'Nay, Sure a custom like yours I could get any day' And it's no, nay, never! No nay never no more Will I play the wild rover? No never no more, And from my pocket I took sovereigns bright, And the landlady's eyes, they lit up with delight She said, 'I have whiskeys and wines of the best, And the words that I spoke, 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 forgive me as oft-times before, Then I promise I'll 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 moreTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
