The Parting Glass Songtext

The Parting Glass Songtext
Of all the money that e′er I had
I spent it in good company
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 mem'ry 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
And 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'd wish me one more day to stay
But since it fell unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
Fill to me the parting glass
And drink a health whate′er befalls
And gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
La La
But since it fell unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
Good night and joy be to you all.
I spent it in good company
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 mem'ry 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
And 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'd wish me one more day to stay
But since it fell unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
Fill to me the parting glass
And drink a health whate′er befalls
And gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
La La
But since it fell unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all
Good night and joy be to you all.
