	Story Behind the Song We did this just because it's fun to play, plus people always enjoy hearing it. Steve, Mike and Vince all have a go at singing lead, with Don in the choruses. This number features Eric "Fingers" Barclay on accordion. Lyrics Wild Rover I've been a Wild Rover for many's the year And I've spent all my money on whiskey and beer But now I'm returning with gold in great store And I never will play the Wild Rover no more Chorus: And it's no, nay, never. No, nay, never more. Will I play the Wild Rover No never more. I went into an alehouse I used to frequent And I told the landlady my money was spent I asked her for credit, she answered me "Nay! Such as custom as yours I can have any day." Chorus: I pulled out from me pocket 10 sovereigns bright And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight She said "I have whiskeys and wines of the best But the words that I spoke they were only in jest" Chorus: I'll go home to my parents and confess what I've done I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son And when they've caressed as of times before Then I never will play the Wild Rover no more.
