I've Abeen a wild rover for many a Dyear
And I Aspent all my E7money on whiskey and Abeer,
And now I'm returning with gold in great Dstore
And I Anever will E7play the wild rover no Amore.

   And it's E7no, nay, never, A
   No nay never no Dmore,
   Will I Aplay the wild Drover
   No E7never no Amore.

I went to 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 could have any day."

I 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
And the words that I spoke sure were only in jest."

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 (forgive) me as ofttimes before
Sure I never will play the wild rover no more.
