The wild rower

Capo 3_ [Verse 1] I've been a wild rover for many a year I 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 [Chorus] And it's no nay never, no nay never no more Will I play the wild rover, no never, no more [Verse 2] I went in to 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 custom as yours I could have any day!" [Chorus] And it's no nay never, no nay never no more Will I play the wild rover, no never, no more [Verse 3] I took out of me pocket ten sovereigns bright And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight She said: "I have whiskeys and wines on the best! And the words that I told you were only in jest!" [Chorus] And it's no nay never, no nay never no more Will I play the wild rover, no never, no more [Verse 4] I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done And ask them to pardon their prodigal son And when they've caressed me as oftimes before I never will play the wild rover no more. [Chorus] 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
