THE WILD ROVER I've been a wild rover for many's a year And I've spent all my money on whiskey and beer But now I'm returning with gold in great store And I never will play the Wild Rover no more Chorus: And it's no, nay, never No, nay, never, no more Will I play the Wild Rover No never, no more I went into an alehouse that I used to frequent And I told the landlady my money was spent I asked her for credit, she answered me "nay Such a custom as yours I can have any day" Then out of my pockets I took sovereigns bright And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight She said "I have whiskey and wines of the best And the words that I said, they were only in jest" I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son And if they caress me as oft times before Then I never will play the Wild Rover no more. + Informações

Chicago PBS July 1962 Quote from Liam Clancy, www.liamclancy.com "That's Robert Emmet's famous "Speech from the Dock". Robert Emmet was the eloquent leader of the United Irishmen who led an unsuccessful uprising in Dublin against British rule in Ireland in 1803. He was 25 years old when he was convicted of high treason and sentenced to death. When asked in court if he had anything to say before the sentence was passed he made that incredible speech - impromptu! It was delivered to a stunned courtroom on September 19, 1803 and has since been included in every collection of great speeches of the world.". + Informações
