The Parting Glass Songtext
von The High Kings

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 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′d 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

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

La, ra, la, ra, la, la
La, lala, lala, la, la
La, ra, lala, la, la
La, la, la, lala, la, la

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
