empty hats - ramblin' rover lyrics

Loading...

there are sober men a-plenty
and drunkards barely twenty
there are men of over ninety
who have never yet kissed a girl
but give me a ramblin’ rover
frae orkney down to dover
we will roam the country over
together we’ll face the world

i have roamed throughout the nation
ta’en delight in all creation
and have gained a wee sensation
when the company did prove kind
and when parting was no pleasure
we drank another measure
to the good friends that we treasure
’cause they always are in our minds

there are sober men a-plenty
and drunkards barely twenty
there are men of over ninety
who have never yet kissed a girl
give me a ramblin’ rover
frae orkney down to dover
we will roam the country over
together we’ll face the world

there are those who feign enjoyment
from merciless employment
this condition was their deployment
from the minute they left the school
now they save and scr-pe and ponder
while the rest go out and squander
see the world and roam and wander
and we’re happier as a rule

there are sober men a-plenty
and drunkards barely twenty
there are men of over ninety
who have never yet kissed a girl
give me a ramblin’ rover
frae orkney down to dover
we will roam the country over
together we’ll face the world

now when troubles they do befall me
to the high road i do haul me
rovin’ john is what they call me
it’s a blessing and a curse
though my troubles they be many
i’ll take a drink with any
’til i’ve spent me last wee penny
and they come for me in a he-rs-.

there are sober men a-plenty
and drunkards barely twenty
there are men of over ninety
who have never yet kissed a girl
give me a ramblin’ rover
frae orkney down to dover
we will roam the country over
together we’ll face the world

if you’re bent with arthritis
your bowels have got colitis
or the galloping balacitis
and you’re thinking it’s time you died
if you’ve been a man of action
and now you’re lying there in traction
you may gain some satisfaction
thinking “jesus at least i tried!”

there are sober men a-plenty
and drunkards barely twenty
there are men of over ninety
who have never yet kissed a girl
give me a ramblin’ rover
frae orkney down to dover
we will roam the country over
together we’ll face the world

there are sober men a-plenty
and drunkards barely twenty
there are men of over ninety
who have never yet kissed a girl
give me a ramblin’ rover
frae orkney down to dover
we will roam the country over
and together we’ll face the world
