Andy M. Stewart - The Ramblin' Rover Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Oh, there're sober men in plenty,
  • And drunkards barely twenty,
  • There are men of over ninety
  • That have never yet kissed a girl.
  • But gie me a ramblin' rover,
  • And fae Orkney down to Dover.
  • We will roam the country over
  • And together we'll face the world.
  • There's many that feign enjoyment
  • From merciless employment,
  • Their ambition was this deployment
  • From the minute they left the school.
  • And they save and scrape and ponder
  • While the rest go out and squander,
  • See the world and rove and wander
  • And are happier as a rule.
  • I've roamed through all the nations
  • Ta'en delight in all creation,
  • And I've tried a wee sensation
  • Where the company, did prove kind.
  • And when partin' was no pleasure,
  • I've drunk another measure
  • To the good friends that were treasure
  • For they always are in our minds.
  • If you're bent wi' arth-i-ritis,
  • Your bowels have got colitis,
  • You've gallopin' with bollockitis
  • And you're thinkin' it's time you died,
  • If you been a man of action,
  • Though you're lying there in traction,
  • You will get some satisfaction
  • Thinkin', "Jesus, at least I tried."
