I’ve been a wild rover
for many's a year
And I've spent half my money
drinking strong ale and beer
But now for the future
I must take better care
In case that misfortune
might come to my share
Wild roving I’ll give it over
Wild roving give o’er
And I never will be called the
Wild rover no more
I went into an alehouse
I used to resort
And I told the landlady
that my money was short
When she heard of my story
oh her answer it was nay
Saying custom such as yours
I could have any day
Wild roving I’ll give it over
Wild roving give o’er
And I never will be called the
Wild rover no more
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 I had the money
and money go leor
When she saw I had the money
well she called me her stor
Saying I have the whiskey
and wines of the best
And the words I had spoken
they were only in jest
Wild roving I’ll give it over
Wild roving give o’er
And I never will be called the
Wild rover no more
If I had half the money
I left in your care
It would buy me ten acres
and my family rear
It would thatch me a cottage
it would build me a barn
It would buy me a coat
for to keep my back warm
Wild roving I’ll give it over
Wild roving give o’er
And I never will be called the
Wild rover no more
