Wild Rover
by The Electrics

Album: Old, New, Borrowed & Green


I've been a wild rover for many a year,
And 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.

And it's no, nay, never,
No, nay, never, no more,
Will I play the wilder rover?
No, never, no more.

I went to this alehouse I used to frequent,
I told the landlady me money was spent,
I asked her for credit; she answered me, "Nay,"
She said, "Custom like yours I can get any day."

And it's no, nay, never,
No, nay, never, no more,
Will I play the wilder rover?
No, never, no more.

I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done,
And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son,
And I went – dad caressed me, as oft times before,
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 wilder rover?
No, never, no more,
And it's no, nay, never,
No, nay, never, no more,
Will I play the wilder rover?
No, never, no more.
