Of all the money that eer I had, I spent it in good company
And of all the harm that eer Ive done, alas it was to none but me
And all Ive done for want of wit, to memory now I cant recall
So fill to me the parting glass. Goodnight and joy be with you all

Of all the comrades that eer I had, theyre sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that eer 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
Ill gently rise and Ill softly call, Goodnight and joy be with you all!

A 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 ordered 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
