“The Parting Glass”
by Shaun Davey
“Forever In Your Debt”
With thanks to those who blew the wind,
And those who sailed the ship,
We sailed it tight against the tide,
And I shall be forever in your debt.
All the money that e’er I had
I spent it in good company
And all the harm I’ve ever 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 to you all!
Fill to me the parting glass
And drink a health whate’er befalls
Then gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all!
Of all the comrades that e’er I had
They’re sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that e’er I had
They’d wish me one more day to stay.
Since it fell into my lot
that I should rise,and you should not
I’ll gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all!
But since it fell into my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I’ll gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all!
So fill to me the parting glass
And drink a health whate’er befalls
Then gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all!
