      sorry to upset the apple cart but the Wild Rover is a 17th century English Song! "The Wild Rover', a song widely known amongst the general public and commonly believed to be Irish, has its origin in a seventeenth-century English broadside written by Thomas Lanfiere, one of a class of moralizing 'alehouse ballads' of the period.

    I'm sitting here on lockdown for this f'n Corona Virus. I am separated from my family and must spend this time alone. Because St. Patrick's Day was cancelled this year of 2020 I was listening to this music to cheer me up. Is there anything in this world more cheerful than Irish music ? It breaks your heart and makes you glad to be alive at the same time. I'm proud to be an Irish American.

Danny boy is also an English song! its how the Irish learnt to speak the English language. similar to how the Russians learn to speak English singing Beatles songs.

    A real rush of memories....when I was a young lad (14) in southern Ontario (lates'60's), we raised money for our pipe band by hosting a number of Irish bands in a series of concerts. I can still remember sitting around our dining room table with Tommy Makem and the Clancy brothers drinking and singing this very song. I even played the tin whistle while the guys drummed on the table and sang. Over 50 years ago now, but the memories are so clear and vivid that it could have been yesterday. Sláinte Mhaith.

    Then out of my pockets I took sovereigns bright
    And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
    She says I have whiskeys and wines of the best
    And the words that I said were only in jest
    Chorus
    I go home to my parents, confess what I've done
    And I ask them to pardon their prodigal son
    And if they caress me as oft times before

    My friend met an Irish lass in the 80's. He brought her over from Dublin to the Rhondda Valleys where she was introduced to the locals in The Royal Oak.
    We sang, as we did back then, and she sang too, cockles and mussels was one that we loved and she also sang this....
    She had such a beautiful voice she she silenced the room. We were enthralled and we were happy - and when we sang the chorus with her we took the roof off. Oh the memories are as fresh now as they were then.
    This song will always remind me of that lovely girl and whenever I hear it I wonder what she is doing now. And whether she remembers her visit to the Rhondda.

    We used to sing this song at the start of every english class my first and second year of high school! We sang it so loud (accompanied by the banging on the desks) I'm pretty sure they could hear us loud and clear in the other classrooms! Loved that class 😁

    Friends, after all, everyone likes music according to their own taste, regardless of nationality. The Dubliners were here only once and were only ones. But it's good that there is another band that still keeps their songs in our memory.

    I don’t know what’s wrong with people on side of the pond - I started singing this at a bar and everyone looked at me like I had one too many heads on my shoulders or that I had violated some secret, hidden, sacrosanct code of Protestant America that nobody had ever cared to tell me about.
    Didn’t stop me from singing the song, of course.

    Sung this song with The Young Clancy's, never heard of them, most never have, realatives in St. Louis working the big pan, next Rich Lavin, best fiddler and teacher of pipes. Working on a plaster crew Saturday afternoon, talking about playing for O'Connels pub. Every Sat And Sunday night we would parade the square with pipe and drums and bring the crowd to Jack's place.

    From Saskatchewan in Canada we've sung this song from Bali to an Irish bar in Chiang Mai and so we hope you'll come to Canada. The version that you guys sing is the familiar one and my friends and I have been singing it in rough bars and watering holes for almost 40 years. Of course your version is much better so we'll wait for you guys to come and do concerts in Western Canada.

    Chorus (after each verse):
    And it's no, nay, never
    No, nay, never, no more
    Will I play the wild rover
    No, never, no moreI've been a wild rover for many's a year
    And I've spent all me money on whiskey and beer
    And now I'm returning with gold in great store
    And I never will play the wild rover no moreI 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 a custom as yours I could have any day"Then out of my pocket I took sovereigns bright
    And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
    She said, "I have whiskey and wines of the best
    And the words that I spoke, they were only in jest"I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done
    And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son
    And if they caress me as oft times before
    I never will play the wild rover no more(Chorus 3x)
