The Parting Glass

we should record different version to show differences in musical style Daisy to add score

Of all the money e'er I had,

I spent it in good company.

And all the harm e'er I've done,

Alas! it was to none but me.

And all I've done for want of wit

To mem'ry now I can't recall

So fill to me the parting glass

Good night and joy be with you all.

Chorus: (Some Versions Omit)

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"

Oh, all the comrades e'er I had,

They're sorry for my going away,

And all the sweethearts e'er I had,

They'd wish me one more day to stay,

But since it falls unto my lot,

That I should rise and you should not,

I gently rise and softly call,

Good night 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 to me the parting glass,

Good night and joy be with you all.
