Parting Glass Lyrics

Oh all the money that e'er I spent,
I have spent it in good company.
And of all the harm that e'er I've done
alas it was to none but me.
For all I've done for want of wit
To memory now I can't recall.
So fill to me that parting glass,
Goodnight and joy be with you all.

Oh of all the comrades that e'er I had
They are sorry now for my going away.
And of all the sweethearts that e'er I had
They 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
Goodnight and joy be with you all.
If I had money enough to spend,
And leisure time to sit awhile.
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 in thrall.
Then fill me with the parting glass,
Good night and joy be with you all
