The Parting Glass
Verse 1
Oh all the money that e'er I spent, 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 mem'ry now I can't recall.
So fill to me the parting glass, good night, and joy be with you all.
​
​
Verse 2
Oh, all the comrades that e'er I've had are sorry for my going away.
And all the sweethearts that e'er I've had would wish me one more day to stay.
​
But since it falls un-to my lot that
I should rise and you should not, I'll gent-ly rise and I'll soft-ly call, good night, and joy be with you all.
Good night, and joy be with you all.
