The Wild Rover (Edit)

[Verse 1]

I've been a wild rover for many's a year

And I've spent half me money drinking strong ale and beer

[Chorus]

Wild rovin' I'll give it over

Wild rovin' give up

And I never will be called the

Wild rover no more

[Verse 2]

I went into an alehouse I used to resort

And I told the landlady that my money was short

When she heard of my story, oh her answer twas "nay"

Sayin' "Custom such as yours I could have any day"

[Chorus]

Wild rovin' I'll give it over

Wild rovin' give up

And I never will be called the

Wild rover no more

[Bridge]

If I had half the money I left in your cairn

It would buy me a goat fur to keep my back warm

[Chorus]

Wild rovin' I'll give it over

Wild rovin' give up

And I never will be called the

Wild rover no more
