The Wild Rover

(الألبوم: Celtic Thunder X - 2018)

I've been a wild rover for many's the year
And I've spent all me money on whiskey and beer
But now I'm returning with gold 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 alehouse I used to frequent
And I told the landlady me money was spent
I asked her for credit, she answered me "nay"
"Such a custom as 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 took out from me pocket ten sovereigns bright
And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
She said "I have whiskeys and wines of the best
Sure the words that I spoke they 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'd done
And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son
And when they've caressed me as ofttimes 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
