[Intro]
[Verse]
The fire is out, the moon is down
The parting glass is dry and done
And I must go and leave this town
Before the rising of the sun
[Verse]
Long s the road and many s the mile
Before I rest my soul again
With girls who weep and girls who smile
At all the words and ways of men
[Instrumental]
[Verse]
But some there are who may not hide
But wander til their journey s end
Or take a girl to be a bride
Or keep a man to be a friend
[Verse]
When I m done with wandering
I will sit beside the road and weep
For all the songs I did not sing
And promises I did not keep
[Instrumental]
[Verse]
When I m done with wandering
I will sit beside the road and weep
For all the songs I could not sing
And promises I did not keep
