I've been a wild rover for many's a year
And spent all my 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
Went into an ale house I used to frequent
And I told the landlady my money was spent
I asked her for credit, she answered me "Nay"
"Such a custom as yours, I can have every 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 me pocket ten sovereigns bright
And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
She says, "I have whiskey and wines of the best"
And the words that you told me were only in jest
I'll go home to me parents, confess what I'd done
And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son
And when they've caressed me as oft' times 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
