Well I've been the wild rover for many a year
And I've spent all me money on whiskey and beer
Now I'm returning with gold in great store
And never will I 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 me money was spent
I asked her for credit, she answered me "Nay,
Such a custom as yours I could 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 pulled out of me pocket ten sovereigns bright
And the landlady's eyes shone wide with delight
She said "I have whiskeys and wines on the best
And the words that I said 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 me parents, confess what I've done
And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son
And when they caress me as oft times before
Oh never will I 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
