[00:00.00] The Parting Glass - Cara Dillon
[00:00.25]
[00:00.50] Of all the money that ere I had, I've spent it in good company,
[00:15.31] And of all the harm that ere I've done, alas was done to none but me.
[00:29.98] And all I've done for want of wit, to memory now I cannot recall.
[00:44.09] So fill me the parting glass, goodnight and joy be with you all.
[00:57.84]
[00:59.69] Of all the comrades that ere I had, they're sorry for my going away,
[01:12.29] And of all the sweethearts that ere I've had , they wish me one more day to stay,
[01:27.01] But since it falls unto my lot that I should rise and you should not,
[01:40.25] I'll gently rise and I'll softly call, Goodnight and joy be with you all.
[01:53.55]
[01:55.97] A man may drink and not be drunk,
[02:02.69] a man may fight and may not be slain
[02:09.87] A man may court a pretty girl
[02:16.47] and perhaps be welcome back again.
[02:22.74]
[02:24.69] But since it has so ordered been by a time to rise
[02:34.67] And a time to fall
[02:38.30] Come fill to me the Parting glass, goodnight and joy be with you all.
[02:53.79] Come fill to me the Parting glass, goodnight and joy be with you all.
[03:11.10]
[03:11.96] End
[03:12.67]
