♫ Chorus:
               G
Oh, there're sober men aplenty
G
And drunkards barely twenty
C            G
There are men of over ninety
           Am                D
That have never yet kissed a girl.
          Em
But give me a ramblin' rover
G

And fair Orkney down to Dover.
         C               G
We will roam the country over
          D                  G
And together we'll face the world.




♫ Verse 1:
 G
I've roamed through all the nations
 G
Ta'en delight in all creation
C         G
And I've tried a wee sensation
           Am                D
Where the company, did prove kind.
          G
And when partin' was no pleasure
G
I've drunk another measure
         C                       G
To the good friends that were treasure
          D                G
For they always are in our minds.

♫ Verse 2:
        G
There's many that feign enjoyment
       G
From merciless employment
C                 G
Their ambition was this deployment
           Am                  D
From the minute they left the school.
          G
And they save and scrape and ponder
           G
While the rest go out and squander
C                  G
See the world and rove and wander
          D          C
And are happier as a rule.

G

♫ Verse 3:
            G
If you're bent wi' arth-i-ritis
G
Your bowels have got colitis
C                G
You've gallopin' with bollockitis
             Am                      D
And you're thinkin' it's time you died
G
If you been a man of action

Though you're lying there in traction

You will get some satisfaction
