The Parting Glass

Oh all the money e'er I had

I spent it in good company

And all the harm I've ever 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

Oh all the comrades e'er I had

They're sorry for my going away

And all the sweethearts e'er I had

They wished me one more day to stay

But since it falls unto my lot

That I should rise and you should not

I gently rise and softly call

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 enthralled

Then fill to me the parting glass

Good night and joy be with you all
