Gerald Saetveit - The Parting Glass Lyrics

All the money that e'er I've had
I spent it in good company
And all the harm that e'er I've done
Alas, it was to none but me

And all I've done for want of wit
To memory now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be with you all

All the comrades that e'er I've had
They're sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that e'er I've had
They'd wish me one more day to stay

But since it falls upon my lot
That I should go and you should not
I gently rise and I'll softly call
Good night and joy be with you all

If I had money enough to spend
And leisure time to sit awhile
There is a fair maid in this town
That sorely has my heart beguiled

Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips
I own she has my heart enthralled
Then fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be with you all

Good night and joy be with you all
