I’m A Rover The Wolfe Tones

I must away now, I cannot tarry
This morning's tempest I have to cross
I must be guided without a stumble
Into the arms that I love the most

[Chorus]
For I'm a rover, seldom sober
I'm a rover of high degree
It's when I'm drinking I'm always thinking
How to gain my love's company

And when he came to his true love's dwelling
He knelt down gently upon a stone
And through the window he whispered slowly
"Is my true lover within at home?"

[Chorus]
For I'm a rover, seldom sober
I'm a rover of high degree
It's when I'm drinking I'm always thinking
How to gain my love's company

Wake up, wake up, love
'Tis your own true lover
Wake up, wake up, love and let me in
For I am wet, love and I am weary
For I am wet, love unto my skin
She raised her up with the greatest of pleasure
She raised her up and she let him in
And they were locked in eachother's arms, dear
Till the long night was passed and gone
