Of all the money that here I had
I’ve spent them in good company
And all the harm that here I’ve done
Alas it was to none but me
And all I’ve done for want of it
To memory now I can’t recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be with you allOf all the comrades that here I had
They are sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that e’er I had
They would wish me one more day to stay
But since it falls unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I’ll gently rise and I’ll softly callGood night and joy be with you allA man may drink and not be drunk
A man may fight and not be slain
A man may court a pretty girl
And perhaps be welcomed back again
But since it has so ought to be
By a time to rise and a time to fall
Come fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be with you all
Good night and joy be with you all
I’ve spent them in good company
And all the harm that here I’ve done
Alas it was to none but me
And all I’ve done for want of it
To memory now I can’t recall
So fill to me the parting glass
