Lyrics

Oh, all the money that 'ere I spent,
I spent it in good company. 
And all the harm that 'ere I done,
alas, it was to none but me.

And all I've done for want of wit,
To mem'ry now I can't recall.
So raise to me the parting glass.
Goodnight! And joy be with you all.

Oh, all the comrades that 'ere I had,
are sorry for my going away.
And all the sweethearts that 'ere I had,
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 call:
Goodnight! And joy be with you all.
Goodnight! And joy be with you all.
