| [00:19.73] | It’s of a jolly beggarman came tripping o’er the plain |
| [00:25.06] | He came unto a farmer’s door a lodging for to gain |
| [00:29.70] | The farmer’s daughter she came down and viewed him cheek and chin |
| [00:34.63] | She says, He is a handsome man. I pray you take him in |
| [00:39.48] | We’ll go no more a roving, a roving in the night. |
| [00:44.20] | We’ll go no more a roving, let the moon shine so bright |
| [00:48.80] | We’ll go no more a roving |
| [00:51.20] | He would not lie within the barn nor yet within the byre |
| [00:55.20] | But he would in the corner lie down by the kitchen fire |
| [01:00.48] | o then the beggar’s bed was made of good clean sheets and hay |
| [01:05.46] | And down beside the kitchen fire the jolly beggar lay |
| [01:10.25] | We’ll go no more a roving, a roving in the night |
| [01:14.78] | We’ll go no more a roving, let the moon shine so bright |
| [01:19.61] | We’ll go no more a roving |
| [01:22.36] | The farmer’s daughter she got up to bolt the kitchen door |
| [01:26.82] | And there she saw the beggar standing naked on the floor |
| [01:31.58] | He took the daughter in his arms and to the bed he ran |
| [01:36.21] | Kind sir, she says, be easy now, you’ll waken our good man |
| [01:40.57] | We’ll go no more a roving, a roving in the night |
| [01:45.46] | We’ll go no more a roving, let the moon shine so bright |
| [01:52.34] | We’ll go no more a roving |
| [01:59.33] | |
| [02:04.39] | Now you are no beggar, you are some gentleman |
| [02:08.61] | For you have stolen my maidenhead and I am quite undone |
| [02:13.05] | I am no lord, I am no squire, of beggars I be one |
| [02:17.63] | And beggars they be robbers all, so you are quite undone |
| [02:22.88] | We’ll go no more a roving, a roving in the night |
| [02:27.36] | We’ll go no more a roving, let the moon shine so bright |
| [02:32.04] | We’ll go no more a roving |
| [02:34.20] | She took the bed in both her hands,And threw it at the wall |
| [02:37.04] | Says “Go you with the beggar man,my maidenhead and all. |
| [02:43.28] | We’ll go no more a roving, a roving in the night |
| [02:48.74] | We’ll go no more a roving, let the moon shine so bright |
| [02:53.33] | We’ll go no more a roving |
