The blarney lads - The wild rover lyrics

I've been a wild rover for many a year I've spent all my money on whiskey and beer Now I'm returning with gold in great store And I swear that I'll play the wild rover no more Chorus: And it no, nay, never (clap hands four times) No, nay, never, No more Will I play the wild rover No, never, no more I went into an ale house that I used to frequent And I told the lady my money was spent I asked her for credit and she answered me nay Such a custom as yours I can get day Chorus And out of my pocket and pulled sovereigns bright The landlady's eyes opened wide with delight She said I have whiskey and wines of the best And the words that I said were only in jest I'd go home to my parents confess what I've done And ask them to pardon their prodigal son And if their'll caress me as oft times before Then I swear that I play the wild rover no more
