[00:51.652] I've been a wild rover for many's a year
[01:08.582] And I've spent half me money drinking strong ale and beer
[01:25.289] But now for the future I must take better care
[01:41.940] In case that misfortune might come to my share
[01:56.891] Wild rovin' I'll give it over
[02:05.873] Wild rovin' give o'er
[02:15.070] And I never will be called the
[02:21.793] Wild rover no more
[02:31.589] I went into an alehouse I used to resort
[02:48.903] And I told the landlady that my money was short
[03:03.431] When she heard of my story, oh her answer twas "nay"
[03:19.617] Sayin' "Custom such as yours I could have any day"
[03:33.570] Wild rovin' I'll give it over
[03:42.289] Wild rovin' give o'er
[03:51.344] And I never will be called the
[03:57.406] Wild rover no more
[04:06.461] I put my hand in my pocket, some money to find
[04:22.077] And I pulled out the full of my two fists five times
[04:35.564] When she saw I had the money
[04:43.335] And money galore
[04:49.860] When she saw I had the money
[04:56.483] Well she called me her stór
[05:02.530] Saying "I have the whiskey and wines of the best
[05:17.338] All the words I have spoken, they were only in jest"
[05:31.211] Wild rovin' I'll give it over
[05:39.665] Wild rovin' give o'er
[05:48.201] And I never will be called the
[05:54.438] Wild rover no more
[06:09.055] If I had half the money I left in your care
[06:23.602] It would buy me ten acres and my family rear
[06:36.938] It would thatch me a cottage, it would build me a barn
[06:51.382] It would buy me a coat fur to keep my back warm
[07:04.474] Wild rovin' I'll give it over
[07:12.861] Wild rovin' give o'er
[07:22.284] And I never will be called the
[07:27.171] Wild rover no more
[00:51.652] I' ve been a wild rover for many' s a year
