The Parting Glass Marc Gunn

The Parting Glass - Marc Gunn
Of all the money that ere I had, I spent it in good company
And of all the harm that ere I've done, alas was done to none but me
And all I've done for want of wit, to memory now I cannot recall
So fill me to the parting glass. Goodnight and joy be with you all

Of all the comrades that ere I had, they're sorry for my going away
And of all the sweethearts that ere I had , they wish me one more day to stay
But since it falls unto my lot that I should rise while you should not
I will gently rise and I'll softly call, "Goodnight and joy be with you all!"

Oh, if I had money enough to spend and leisure time to sit awhile
There is a fair maid in this town that sorely has my heart beguiled
Her rosey cheeks and ruby lips, she alone has my heart in thrall
So fill me to the parting glass. Goodnight and joy be with you all
