The Parting Glass

Verse 1
Of all the money ere I had, I spent it in good company, And all the harm I've ever done, alas was done to none but me and all I've done for want of wit, to memory now I can't recall so fill me to the parting glass, goodnight and joy be with you all.
Verse 2
Of all the comrades ere I had, they're sorry for my going away, and all the sweethearts ere I had, they wish me one more day to stay, but since it falls unto my lot that I should go and you should not, I'll gently rise and softly call, goodnight and joy be with you all.
Verse 3
If I had money enough to spend and leisure time to sit awhile there is a fair maid in this town who sorely has my heart beguiled. Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips, I alone she has my heart in thrall so fill me to the parting glass goodnight and joy be with you all.
