The Ramblin' Rover Lyrics - Singles - Silly Wizard

CHORUS 

Oh, there're sober men and plenty, 

And drunkards barely twenty, 

There are men of over ninety 

That have never yet kissed a girl. 

But give me a ramblin' rover, 

Frae Orkney down to Dover. 

We will roam the country over 

And together we'll face the world. 

 

I've roamed through all the nations 

In delight of all creations, 

And enjoyed a wee sensation 

Where the company, did prove kind. 

And when partin' was no pleasure, 

I've drunk another measure 

To the good friends that we treasure 

For they always are in our mind. 

 

CHORUS 

 

There's many that feign enjoyment 

From merciless employment, 

Their ambition was this deployment 

From the minute they left the school. 

And they save and scrape and ponder 

While the rest go out and squander, 

See the world and rove and wander 

And are happier as a rule. 

 

CHORUS 

 

If you're bent wi' arthiritis, 

Your bowels have got Colitis, 

You've gallopin' bollockitis 

And you're thinkin' it's time you died, 

If you been a man o' action, 

Though you're lying there in traction, 

You will get some satisfaction 

Thinkin', "Jesus, at least I tried." 

 

CHORUS
