Wild Rover<br />
I've been a wild rover for many's<br />
the year<br />
I've spent all me money on<br />
whiskey and beer<br />
But now I'm returning with gold<br />
in great store<br />
And I never will play the wild<br />
rover no more<br />
And it's No, Nay, never,<br />
No, nay never no more<br />
Will I play the wild rover,<br />
No never no more<br />
I went in to an alehouse I used<br />
to frequent<br />
And I told the landlady me<br />
money was spent<br />
I asked her for credit, she<br />
answered me nay<br />
Such a customer as you I can<br />
have any day<br />
And it's No, Nay, never,<br />
No, nay never no more<br />
Will I play the wild rover,<br />
No never no more<br />
I took up from my pocket, ten<br />
sovereigns bright<br />
And the landlady's eyes opened<br />
wide with delight<br />
She says "I have whiskeys and<br />
wines of the best<br />
And the words that you told me<br />
were only in jest"<br />
And it's No, Nay, never,<br />
No, nay never no more<br />
Will I play the wild rover,<br />
No never no more<br />
I'll go home to my parents,<br />
confess what I've done<br />
And I'll ask them to pardon their<br />
prodigal son<br />
And, when they've caressed me<br />
as oft times before<br />
I never will play the wild rover<br />
no more<br />
And it's No, Nay, never,<br />
No, nay never no more<br />
Will I play the wild rover,<br />
No never no more<br />

Bog Down In The Valley-O<br />
Hey-ho the rattlin’ bog, the bog<br />
down in the valley-o.<br />
Hey-ho the rattlin’ bog, the bog<br />
down in the valley-o.<br />
Now in this bog there was a<br />
tree, a rare tree, a rattlin' tree,<br />
A tree in the bog, in the bog<br />
down in the valley-o.<br />
[Chorus]<br />
Now on this tree there was a<br />
limb, a rare limb, a rattlin' limb,<br />
A limb on the tree, and the tree<br />
in the bog, in the bog down in<br />
the valley-o.<br />
[Chorus]<br />
Now on this limb there was a<br />
branch, a rare branch, a rattlin'<br />
branch, a branch on the limb,<br />
and the limb on the tree, and<br />
the tree in the bog, in the bog<br />
down in the valley-o.<br />
[Chorus]<br />
Now on this branch there was a<br />
twig, a rare twig, a rattlin' twig,<br />
A twig on the branch, and the<br />
branch on the limb, and the limb<br />
on the tree, and the tree in the<br />
bog, in the bog down in the<br />
valley-o.<br />
[Chorus]<br />
Now on this twig there was a<br />
leaf, a rare leaf, a rattlin' leaf,<br />
A leaf on the twig, and the twig<br />
on the branch, and the branch<br />
on the limb, and the limb on the<br />
tree,<br />
And the tree in the bog, in the<br />
bog down in the valley-o.<br />
[Chorus]<br />
Now on this leaf there was a<br />
nest, a rare nest, a rattlin' nest,<br />
A nest on the leaf, and the leaf<br />
on the twig,<br />
And the twig on the branch, and<br />
the branch on the limb,<br />
And the limb on the tree, and<br />
the tree in the bog, in the bog<br />
down in the valley-o.<br />
[Chorus]<br />
Now on this nest there was an<br />
egg, a rare egg, a rattlin' egg,<br />
An egg on the nest, an nest on<br />
the leaf, and the leaf on the<br />
twig, and the twig on the branch,<br />
a branch on the limb, a limb on<br />
the tree, and the tree in the bog,<br />
in the bog down in the valley-o.<br />
[Chorus]<br />
[let the song go on, and<br />
on…speckle, bird, feather, flea,<br />
wing, ameoba, pipe band]<br />
