THE WILD ROVER

 

The Wild Rover

Ukulele ChordUkulele ChordUkulele Chord

I’ve been a wild rover for manys 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 wild rover No, never, no more

 

I went into an alehouse I used to frequent
And I told the landlady me money was spent
I asked her for credit, she answered me “nay.
Such a custom as yours I can have everyday”.
And it’s no, nay, never No, nay, never no more
Will I play the wild rover No, never, no more

I then took from me pocket ten sovereigns bright
And the landlady’s eyes opened wide with delight
She says “I have whiskeys and wines of the best.
And the words that you told me were only in jest”
And it’s no, nay, never No, nay, never no more
Will I play the wild 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 when they’ve caressed me as ofttimes before
I never will play the wild rover no more
And it’s no, nay, never No, nay, never no more
Will I play the wild rover No, never, no more
