The Dubliners - The Wild Rover - Live lyrics

Artist: The Dubliners

album: Live


I've been a wild rover for many's the year
And I've spent all my money on whiskey and beer
But now I'm returning with 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, no more
I went into an ale-house I used to frequent
And I told the landlady my money was spent
I asked her for credit, she answered me nay
Such "a custom like yours I can have any day
And it's no, nay, never
No, nay, never, no more
Will I play the wild rover
No, never, no more
I then took from my pocket ten sovereigns bright
And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
She said I'd have whiskey and wines of the best
And the words that she told me 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 when they've caressed me as oft' times 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, no more
And it's no, nay, never
No, nay, never, no more
Will I play the wild rover
No, never, no more
