The Parting Glass — текст песни (John Mcdermott)

Of all the money that ere I spent

I spent it ingood company

And all the harm that ere Ive done

Alas it was to none but me

And all I have done

For want of wit

To memory now I cant recall

So fill ne the parting glass

Goodnight and joy be with you all

Of all the comrades that ere I had

Are sorry for my going away

And all the sweetheart that ere I had

Would wish me one more day to stay

But since it falls, unto my lot

That I should rise and you should not

I will gently rise

And Ill softly call

Goodnight and joy be with you all



If I had enough money to spend

And leisure time to sit a while

There is a fair maid in this town

That sorely has my heart beguiled

Her rosey cheeks and ruby lips

I own, she has my heart enthralled

So fill to me the parting glass

Goodnight and joy be with you all
