Lyrics

[Verse 1] Of all the money that e'er I had I've spent it in good company And all the harm that ever I done Alas it was to none but me [Chorus 1] 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 [Verse 2] Oh, 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 [Chorus 2] But since it falls unto my lot That I should rise and you should not I'll gently rise and softly call Good night and joy be with you all [Verse 3] If I had money enough to spend And leisure to sit awhile There is a fair maid in the town That sorely has my heart beguiled [Chorus 3] Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips I own she has my heart enthralled So fill to me the parting glass Good night and joy be with you all
