I love you Grandad, I think about you every single day. You used to sing me this and you were the best man I've ever met. You made me into the man I am today x
I've been a wild rover for many's the year And I've spent all me 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 And it's no, nay, never No, nay never no more Will I play the wild rover No never no more I went to an alehouse I used to frequent I told the landlady my money was spent I ask her for credit, she answered me nay Such a custom as yours I can have any day And it's no, nay, never No, nay never no more Will I play the wild rover No never no more I brought from me pocket ten sovereigns bright And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight She said:'I have whiskeys and wines of the best And the words that you told me were only in jest' And it's no, nay, never No, nay never no more Will I play the wild rover No never no more I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son And when they've caressed me, as oft times before I never will play the wild rover no more And it's no, nay, never No, nay never no more Will I play the wild rover No never no more And it's no, nay, never No, nay never no more Will I play the wild rover No never no more
That must be the worst Irish pub in the world. Good music, but the atmosphere there is a bit flat. Maybe it’s ladies night at the Scottish pub down the street.

At their best!
No neh never no neh never no more
It’s 1981
Well spotted! Thanks you, that's now corrected.
Is the wild rover a banjo string ?
I've heard that this is actually a 17th century English folksong originally
That is correct.
will you play the wild rover?
Metallica need to cover this.
ick
I've been a wild rover for many's the year
And I've spent all me 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
And it's no, nay, never
No, nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover
No never no more
I went to an alehouse I used to frequent
I told the landlady my money was spent
I ask her for credit, she answered me nay
Such a custom as yours I can have any day
And it's no, nay, never
No, nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover
No never no more
I brought from me pocket ten sovereigns bright
And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
She said:'I have whiskeys and wines of the best
And the words that you told me were only in jest'
And it's no, nay, never
No, nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover
No never no more
I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done
And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son
And when they've caressed me, as oft times before
I never will play the wild rover no more
And it's no, nay, never
No, nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover
No never no more
And it's no, nay, never
No, nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover
No never no more
Nee is Dutch sounds exactly the same is No in Irish.
it's written as "nay" though 😉
An der Noooord- Seeee- Küsteeee...

Ronnie Drew again looking jealous
I wonder how much head lice Luke Kelly has
