The Parting Glass

Of all the money that e'er I had

I have spent it in good company

Oh and all the harm I've ever 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 to you all


So fill to me the parting glass

And drink a health whate'er befalls

Then gently rise and softly call

Good night and joy be to you all


Of all the comrades that e'er I had

They're sorry for my going away

And all the sweethearts that e'er I had

They would wish me one more day to stay


But since it fell into my lot

That I should rise and you should not

I'll gently rise and softly call

Good night and joy be to you all


So fill to me the parting glass

And drink a health whate'er befalls

Then gently rise and softly call

Good night and joy be to you all


But since it fell into my lot

That I should rise and you should not

I'll gently rise and softly call

Good night and joy be to you all


So fill to me the parting glass

And drink a health whate'er befalls

Then gently rise and softly call

Good night and joy be to you all


Good night and joy be to you all
