- I'm A Rover LyricsAs sung on the following albums: Seven Drunken Nights;
The Best of The Dubliners
There`s ne`er a nicht I`m gane to ramble, there`s ne`er
a nicht I`m gane to roam
There`s ne`er a nicht I`m gane to ramble, intae the
erms of me ain true love
I'm a rover, seldom sober, I'm a rover of high degree
It's when I'm drinkin' I'm always thinkin' how to gain
my love's company
Though the nicht be as dark as dungeon, not a star can
be seen above
I will be guided without a stumble, intae the erms of
my ane true love
I'm a rover, seldom sober, I'm a rover of high degree
It's when I'm drinkin' I'm always thinkin' how to gain
my love's company
He stepped up tae her bedroom winday, kneeling gently
upon a staine
He whispers through her bedroom winday, my darling dear
do you lie alaine
I'm a rover, seldom sober, I'm a rover of high degree
It's when I'm drinkin' I'm always thinkin' how to gain
my love's company
She raised her head from her down soft pillow, wi` her
erms around her breasts
Says: ”Why is that that my bedroom winday is `sterbing
me at my long nicht`s rest?”
I'm a rover, seldom sober, I'm a rover of high degree
It's when I'm drinkin' I'm always thinkin' how to gain
my love's company
Says I: ”My love it's I thy true lover, open the door
and let me in
For I have come on a long nights journey more than near
drenched to my skin”
I'm a rover, seldom sober, I'm a rover of high degree
It's when I'm drinkin' I'm always thinkin' how to gain
my love's company
She opened the door wi` the greatest pleasure, she
opened the door and she let him in
They both shook hands and embraced each other, until
the morning they lay as one
I'm a rover, seldom sober, I'm a rover of high degree
It's when I'm drinkin' I'm always thinkin' how to gain
my love's company
Says I: My love I must go and leave you, to climb the
hills they are far above
But I will climb wi` the greatest pleasure, since I've
been in the arms of my love
