Oh, all the money that 'ere I spent
I spent it in good company
And all the harm that 'ere I did
alas it was to none but me
And all I've done for want of wit
to memory now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass,
good night and joy be with you all!
If I had money enough to spend
and leisure time to sit a while
There is a fair maid in this town
that sorely has my heart beguiled
Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips
I own she has my heart enthralled
So fill to me the parting glass
good night and joy be with you all!
Oh, all the comrades that 'ere I had
they are sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that 'ere I had
may wish me one more day to stay
But since it falls unto my lot
that I should rise and you should not
I'll gently rise and softly call goodnight!
And joy be with you all!
