Wild Rover v1 Misc. Traditional
I've [G]been a Wild Rover for many a [C]year
And I've [G]spent all my [D]money on whiskey and [G]beer [C]
[G]And now I'm returning with gold in great [C]store
And I [G]never will [D]play the Wild Rover no [G]more.
And it's [D]no, nay, never
[G]No nay never no [C]more
Will I [G]play the Wild [C]Rover[Am]
No [D]never, no [G]more.
I went to an alehouse I used to frequent
And I told the landlady my money was spent
I asked her for a Red Stripe, she answered me "nay"
She said, "Patrons like you, I can get any day!"
And it's no, nay, never..
From out of my pockets I took moneys bright
And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
She said, "I have Red Stripes, and wines of the best,
And the words that I said, son, were only in jest!"
And it's no, nay, never....
I'll go back to Jamaica and lie in the sun
But I will play the part of the prodigal son
And if my girl loves me, as oft' times before
Then I never will play the Wild Rover no more.
And it's no, nay, never...
