Artist/Band: The High Kings
Lyrics for Song: The Wild Rover (Live)
Lyrics for Album: The High Kings [2008]



Chorus (after each verse):

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 a 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



I went into an alehouse 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"



Then out of my pocket I took 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, they 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 me as oft times before

I never will play the wild rover no more



(Chorus 3x)
