Please enjoy our version of the traditional favourite:
THE WILD ROVER
I've played a wild rover for many's a year
And I've spent all my money on whiskey and beer
But now I'm returning with gold in great store
And I never will play the wild rover no more
And it's No, Nay, never, (right up yer kilt)
No, nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover,
No never no more
I went in to an alehouse I used to frequent
And I told the landlady me money was spent
I asked her for credit, she answered me nay
Such a custom as yours I could have any day
And it's No, Nay, never, (right up yer kilt)
No, nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover,
No never no more
Then I took from my pocket, ten sovereigns so bright
And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
She says "I have fine whiskeys and ales of the best"
"And the words that I told ya, sure it was only in jest"
And it's No, Nay, never, (right up yer kilt)
No, nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover,
No never no more
I'll go back to my parents, confess what I've done
And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son
And if they caress me as oft times before
Then I never will play the wild rover no more
And it's No, Nay, never, ( right up yer kilt)
No, nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover,
No never no more
Ah well and it's
No, Nay, never, ( right up yer kilt)
No, nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover,
No never no more
Will I play the wild rover
No never no more
-----------------------
Led by the fearless (and often funny) front-woman Derina Harvey, this five-piece Celtic-rock group offers a fresh take on traditional tunes and intersperse that offering with their own original jigs & reels. Their infectious rhythmic undertow is layered with rock guitar, dizzying fiddle motifs, and topped by Derina’s powerful voice. These transplanted east-coasters have earned a reputation as a party-band, leaving many an audience out-of-breath and hollering from the dance floor!
The band has proven to be a crowd-pleaser wherever they go. 2014 has seen the group travel across the country, entertaining crowds at pubs and festivals from Alberta to Newfoundland, where they took the main stage of George Street Festival in St. John's this past summer. Most recently, they shared the stage with Newfoundland CZcams sensation Donnie Dumphy (a comedian/novelty act most prominently featured on the Rick Mercer Report on CBC).
The band continues to build on a growing fan base by promoting their self-titled debut album (released in 2013). The record has garnered radio airplay in multiple regions in Canada (CKUA in Edmonton; K-Rock and Radio Newfoundland in St. John's, NL; CBC, Canada-wide). Work on their second album has already begun, due out by summer of 2015. - Hudba
I love this song ❤
Love Derina, her energy is second to none. God love her.
So nice to have just real music, with no auto tune, just a kick ass singer
I just love this song, the many times I have sung it in pubs and taverns brings a memory and tear to my eye. This version is so well done, I think it has to be in my favorites of all time. Thank you!!
Love the growl in your wild soul.
One of my favourite childhood tunes👍👍
You have a voice like an Irish Amy Lee from Evanescence, and it makes me happy. This is probably one of the best covers I've heard of this song.
This is so brilliantly said... and spot on !
