The Parting Glass

lyrics

oh all the money that e'er I spent, I spent it in good company
and all the harm that e'er 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

oh all the comrades that e'er I've had are sorry for my going away
and all the sweethearts that e'er I've had would wish me one more day to stay
but since it falls unto my lot that I should rise and you should not
I'll gently rise and I'll softly call: good night and joy be with you all
