It's of a jolly beggar man Came tripping o'er the plain
He came [E] unto a farmer's [B] door A-ludging for to gain
The farmer's daughter she came down [E] And viewed him [B] cheek and chin
She says, he is [E] a handsome [B] man I pray you take him in
We'll go no more a-roving [E] A-roving [G#] in the [B] night
We'll go no [E] more a-roving [B] Let the moon shine so bright
We'll go no more a-roving He would not lie within the [E] barn
Nor yet [F#] within the byre [B] But he would [E] in the corner
[B] Lie down by the kitchen fire Oh, then the beggar's bed was made
Of good clean sheets and hay And down [E] beside the kitchen fire
[B] The jolly beggar lay We'll go no more a [E]-roving
A [F#]-roving in the night [B] We'll go [E] no more a-roving
Let [B] the moon shine so bright We'll go no more a-roving
The farmer's daughter she got up To mope the kitchen door
And there she saw [E] the beggar [B] Standing naked on the floor
