about

Traditional arranged by The Grinning Barretts

lyrics

Of all the money that e'er I had
I've spent it in good company
And all the harm that e'er I've done
At least 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 with you all

When I’ve got money enough to spend
And leisure time to sit a while
I’ll be down with the riot crowd
Turning up the fucking dial
With friends we made along the way
Come sing the songs the pipes do play
So fill to me that parting glass
Good night and joy be with you alll

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 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
Good night and joy be with you all
