And I never will play the Wild Rover no more

I went to an ale house I used to fre-quent & I told the land-lady me money was spent

I asked her for credit, she answered me “nay,

Such a custom as yours I can get any day.” . . .

I brought from my pocket, ten sovereigns bright
G C D G d e f#
And the landlady’s eyes opened wide with de-light

She said “I have whiskeys & wines of the best
GCDG
And the words that I told you were only in jest.”. . .

“You can keep all your whiskey & your beer likewise too

For not another penny am I spending with you

For the money I’ve got, I’m taking good care
GCDG
And I never will play the Wild Rover no more.”
