seth staton watkins - the ramblin' rover lyrics

[verse 1]
there’s many that feign enjoyment
from merciless employment
thеir ambition was the deployment
from thе 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 are happier as a rule

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

[verse 3]
if you’re bendin’ with arthiritis
your bowels have got colitis
you’ve gallopin’ b+ll+ckitis
and you’re thinkin’ it’s time you died
if you’ve been a man of action
or you’re lying there in traction
you will get some satisfaction
thinkin’, “jesus, at least i tried.”
[chorus]
oh, there’re sober men and plenty
and drunkards barely twenty
there are men of over ninety
that have never yet kissed a girl
but give me a ramblin’ rover
fae orkney down to dover
we will roam the country over
and together we’ll face the world

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