harmony glen - the rambling rovers lyrics

[chorus]
oh, there are sober men a+plenty
and drunkards barely twenty
there are men of over ninety
that have never yet kissed a girl
but give me a rambling rover
from orkney down to dover
we will roam the country over
and together we’ll face the world

[verse 1]
there are those who feign enjoyment
from merciless employment
their ambition this deployment
from the minute they left the school
and they save and scr+pe and ponder
while the rest go out and squander
see the world and rove and wander
and they’re happier as a rule

[chorus]
there are sober men a+plenty
and drunkards barely twenty
there are men of over ninety
that have never yet kissed a girl
but give me a rambling rover
from orkney down to dover
we will roam the country over
and together we’ll face the world
[verse 2]
i have roamed through all the nations
took delight in all creation
i’ve enjoyed a wee sensation
where the company it was kind
though when parting was no pleasure
i’ve drunk another measure
to the good friends that we treasure
for they always are on our mind

[bridge]
if you’re bent with arthritis
and your bowels have got colitis
you’ve got galloping ballicitus
and you’re thinking it’s time you died
if you been a man o’ action
and 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
that have never yet kissed a girl
but give me a rambling rover
from orkney down to dover
we will roam the country over
and together we’ll face the world
[chorus]
there are sober men a+plenty
and drunkards barely twenty
there are men of over ninety
that have never yet kissed a girl
but give me a rambling rover
from orkney down to dover
we will roam the country over
and together we’ll face the world
