The Wild Rover

The Wild Rover - Dropkick Murphys

And it's no nay never no nay never

No more will I play the wild rover no never no more

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

And I've spent all me money on whiskey and beer

And now I'm returning with gold in great store

And 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

I went into 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 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 took from me pocket

Ten sovereigns bright

And the landlady's eyes opened up with delight

She said I had whiskeys and wines of the best

And the words that she told me 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

And it's no nay never no nay never

No more will I play the wild rover no never no more

I go home to my parents confessed what I'd done

And I asked them to pardon their prodigal son

And when they'd 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
