By far the best cover of the old Scottish song from 17th century, "The Parting Glass". Live in Belgrade, on St. Patrick's Day 2013

The Parting Glass

All the money e'er I had, I spent it in good company.

And all the harm that ever I've done, alas I've done to none but me.

And all I've done for want of wit to mem'ry now I can't recall;

So fill to me the parting glass, Good night and joy be with you all.

All the comrades e'er I had, they're sorry for my going away.

All the sweethearts e'er I had, they'd wished me one more day to stay.

But since it falls unto my lot that I should rise and you should not,

I gently rise and softly call: Good night and joy be with you all.

If I had money enough to spend, and leisure time to sit awhile.

There is a fair maid in this town, that sorely has my heart beguiled.

Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips, I own, she has my heart in thrall;

So fill to me the parting glass, Good night and joy be with you all.

Mnogo mi se dopada ova pesma! Vrlo slusljiva, ali jako komplikovan tekst.
