Tyr - The Wild Rover lyrics
[Tyr - The Wild Rover lyrics]
I've been a wild rover for many a year
And I've spent all my money
On whiskey and beer
But now I'm returning with
Gold in great store
And never I'll play the wild rover no more
I went to a shanty I used to frequent
And told the landlady my money were spent
I asked her for credit, she answered me Nay
Saying, Customers like you I can get any day
And it's no nay never no nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover no never no more
I drew from my pocket ten sovereigns bright
The landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
Saying, I have the whiskey and
Wine of the best and the words that I 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 no more
I'll go home to my parents
Tell them what I've done
And hope they will pardon their prodigal son
And if they will do as so often before
No never 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 more
And I've spent all my money
On whiskey and beer
But now I'm returning with
Gold in great store
And never I'll play the wild rover no more
I went to a shanty I used to frequent
And told the landlady my money were spent
I asked her for credit, she answered me Nay
Saying, Customers like you I can get any day
And it's no nay never no nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover no never no more
I drew from my pocket ten sovereigns bright
The landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
Saying, I have the whiskey and
Wine of the best and the words that I 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 no more
I'll go home to my parents
Tell them what I've done
And hope they will pardon their prodigal son
And if they will do as so often before
No never 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 more
