《The Rake》歌词

[00:00:00] The Rake - The Irish Rovers

[00:00:14] I am a young fellow from the County Tyrone

[00:00:18] In the town of Strabane shur I'm very well known

[00:00:22] For down to the alehouse I'm frequently goin'

[00:00:25] With Kitty and Ginny and Mary

[00:00:29] My father rebuked me for being such a rake

[00:00:32] And for spending me money on whiskey and cakes

[00:00:36] But the lassies are sweet and it's all for their sakes

[00:00:40] And it keeps me lighthearted and merry

[00:00:43] I'll eat when I'm hungry I'll drink when I'm dry

[00:00:47] I will court all the lassies or at least I will try

[00:00:50] And I'll never conform 'til the day that I die

[00:00:54] Agus fagaimid suid mar ata se

[00:01:01] If I chance for to wander on down to the fair

[00:01:05] All the lassies all around me do flock on the square

[00:01:09] I'll pull out me fiddle and play an auld air

[00:01:12] And soon we're all off on the spree

[00:01:16] There's Peggy and Jane from the banks of Loch Nee

[00:01:19] There's Kitty and Molly down Dungannon Way

[00:01:23] And there's another one from Cookstown who makes me head sway

[00:01:26] Such a fuss they all make over me

[00:01:30] I'll eat when I'm hungry I'll drink when I'm dry

[00:01:34] I will court all the lassies or at least I will try

[00:01:37] And I'll never conform 'til the day that I die

[00:01:41] Agus fagaimid suid mar ata se

[00:01:48] To quarrel for riches I ne'er was inclined

[00:01:52] For the greatest of misers must leave them behind

[00:01:55] So me money I spend with no thought in me mind

[00:01:59] But to kick up our heels and carrouse

[00:02:03] For the rich never spend any gold of their own

[00:02:06] Sure they hold it away like a dog and it's bone

[00:02:10] But they end on their back among nettles and stones

[00:02:14] And I hear there're no pockets in shrouds

[00:02:17] I'll eat when I'm hungry I'll drink when I'm dry

[00:02:21] I will court all the lassies or at least I will try

[00:02:24] And I'll never conform 'til the day that I die

[00:02:28] Agus fagaimid suid mar ata se

[00:03:01] Now some say I'm foolish and some say I'm wise

[00:03:04] For loving the women and the whiskey like wives

[00:03:08] But the son of King David had ten hundred wives

[00:03:11] And his wisdom was highly regarded

[00:03:15] So I'll call for the lassies and ask them to wed

[00:03:18] And we'll all be content in the one marriage bed

[00:03:22] While the rich count their gold

[00:03:24] We'll count children instead

[00:03:26] And we'll raise them up true and stout-hearted

[00:03:29] I'll eat when I'm hungry I'll drink when I'm dry

[00:03:33] I will court all the lassies or at least I will try

[00:03:37] And I'll never conform 'til the day that I die

[00:03:40] Agus fagaimid suid mar ata se

[00:03:44] Agus fagaimid suid mar ata se
