[Verse 1]
I've been a wild rover for many a year
And I spent all me money on whiskey and beer
But now I'm returning with gold in great store
And I promise to play the wild rover no more
[Chorus]
And it's no, nay, never
No, nay, never no more
Will I play the wild rover?
No, never, no more
[Verse 2]
I went to an alehouse I used to frequent
And I told the landlady my money was spent
I asked her for credit, she answered me, "Nay
Sure a custom like yours I could get any day"
[Chorus]
And it's no, nay, never
No, nay, never no more
Will I play the wild rover?
No, never, no more
[Verse 3]
And from my pocket I took sovereigns bright
And the landlady's eyes, they lit up with delight
She said, "I have whiskeys and wines of the best
And the words that I spoke, sure were only in jest"

No, nay, never no more
