_ _ _ _ _ _ It's of a Jolly Beggar man [F] came tripping o'er [C] the plain
He _ came unto a [F] _ farmer's [C] daughter lodging for the [G] gain
_ _ [C] The farmer's daughter she came down [F] and viewed him [C] cheek and chin
She says he is a [F] handsome [C] man, how great it a [G]'gain
_ _ _ [C] We'll go no more a-roving in [F] the _
_ [G] _ night
_ [C] We'll go no more a-roving, let the moon shine [G] so bright
[C] We'll go no more a-roving
He would not lie within the barn, nor [F] yet within [C] the byre
But he would in [F] the corner lie [C] down by the kitchen _ fire
Oh, then the beggar's bed was made of good [F]
clean sheets [G] and hay
[C] And down beside [F] the kitchen [C] fire the Jolly [G] Beggar _ lay
[C] We'll go no more a-roving, a [F]
-roving in [G] the [C] night
We'll go no more [F] a-roving, [C] let the moon [G] shine so bright
_ [C] We'll go no more a-roving _ _
The farmer's daughter she came [F] down to bolt the [C] kitchen door
And there she saw [F] the beggar [C] standing naked on the floor
He took the toddler in his [F] arms, to the bed [G] he [Am] ran
[C] _ Crying, sir, she says, _ [F] easy now, [C] you ain't no more a good man
_ We'll go no more a-roving, _ _ [F] a-roving in [G] the night
_ [C] We'll go no [F] more a-roving, _ [C] let the moon shine so bright
We'll go no more a-roving
She lay as still as any mouse, [F] as if she had been [G] _ dead
[C] The beggar he [F] jumped in with [C] her, and he stole her _ _ maidenhead
We'll go no more _ a-roving, a [F]-roving in [G] the night
_ _ [C]
We'll go no [F] more a-roving, [C] let the moon shine [G] so bright
[C] We'll go no more a-roving _

_ [C] For you have stolen [F] my _ _ [C] maidenhead, and I am quite [G] undone
_ [C] I am no lord, I am no squire, [F] of beggars [Gm] I belong
_ [C] And beggars, they be [F] robbers, all [C] to you I'm quite _ _ undone
