Текст песни I'm A Rover - The Dubliners

There′s ne'er a nicht I′m gane to ramble, there's ne'er a nicht I′m gane to roam
There′s ne'er a nicht I′m gane to ramble, intae the erms of me ain true love

I'm a rover, seldom sober, I′m a rover of high degree
It's when I′m drinkin' I'm always thinkin′ how to gain my love′s company

Though the nicht be as dark as dungeon, not a star can be seen above
I will be guided without a stumble, intae the erms of my ane true love

I'm a rover, seldom sober, I′m a rover of high degree
It's when I′m drinkin' I′m always thinkin' how to gain my love's company

He stepped up tae her bedroom winday, kneeling gently upon a staine
He whispers through her bedroom winday, my darling dear do you lie alaine

I′m a rover, seldom sober, I′m a rover of high degree
It's when I′m drinkin' I′m always thinkin' how to gain my love′s company

She raised her head from her down soft pillow, wi' her erms around her breasts
Says: "Why is that that my bedroom winday is 'sterbing me at my long nicht′s rest?"

I′m a rover, seldom sober, I'm a rover of high degree
It′s when I'm drinkin′ I'm always thinkin′ how to gain my love's company

Says I: "My love it's I thy true lover, open the door and let me in
For I have come on a long nights journey more than near drenched to my skin"

I′m a rover, seldom sober, I′m a rover of high degree
It's when I′m drinkin' I′m always thinkin' how to gain my love′s company

She opened the door wi' the greatest pleasure, she opened the door and she let him in
They both shook hands and embraced each other, until the morning they lay as one

I'm a rover, seldom sober, I′m a rover of high degree
It′s when I'm drinkin′ I'm always thinkin′ how to gain my love's company

Says I: My love I must go and leave you, to climb the hills they are far above
But I will climb wi′ the greatest pleasure, since I've been in the arms of my love
