The Wild Rover Lyrics

Sure I've been a wild rover for many's the year
I've spent all me 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
I told the landlady my money's all 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 have whiskey and wines of the best
But the words that were spoken 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 caress me as oft times before
I swear I will play that 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
