Song transcription:
I have been a wild rover, this many's the year,
And I've spent all my money, drinking ale and strong beer,
But now for the future, I will take better care,
In case that misfortune shall fall to my share.
Refrain:
Wild roving I'll give it over,
Wild roving give o'er,
And I ne'er will be called the,
Wild rover no more.
I went into an alehouse, I used to resort,
And I told the landlady, my money was short,
When she heard of my story, to me she did say,
I can have many customers like you any day.
I put my hand in my pocket, some money to find,
And I pulled out the full of, my two fists five times,
When she saw that I had the money, and money go leor, [*]
When she saw that I had the money, she called me her stór. [**]
She says, "I have the whiskey, and that of the best,
And the words that I have spoken, were only in jest."
If I had all the money, I have placed in your care,
It would till all my lands and, my family rear,
It would thatch all my houses. It would build me a barn.
It would buy me a coat for to keep my back warm.
go leor = lots of
** stór = treasure
