The Parting Glass

Oh all the money ever I had

I spent it in good company

And all the harm that ever I've done

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 in thrall

So fill to me the parting glass

Good night and joy be with you all

Oh all the comrades ever I had

They're sorry for my going away

And all the sweethearts ever I had

They'd wished me one more day to stay

But since it falls into my lost

That I should rise and you should not

I gently rise and softly call

Goodnight and joy be with you all
