Sweet mercy young up & gone & left me lonesome, What a melancholy habit a rolling stone has to roam, Your hat is where your home is Oh! for your sake all the hearts I would break Just for the reckoning What should I do to survive? Where should I go for sustenance? & How will it suffer No, it would not do to reply, There is no viable Natures delight are worth a few bites So come under the canopys Casting the bones across the table again Kiss the talisman, roll the wheel Cast off the anchor & go sailing again Tilt the rudder & turn the keel Carry on traveller Cut loose your burden, & Sit a while beside me Circumstances collide You can't stop the tide steady advance What would you stake & wich wager forsake? For the plot is always thickening Casting the bones across the table again Kiss the talisman, roll the wheel Cast off the anchor & go sailing again Tilt the rudder & turn the keel 1 for solace, 2 for courage 3 for protection on the voyage 4 for fortune, 5 for tomorrow 6 & 7 for loss & sorrow 1 for solace, 2 for courage 3 for protection on the voyage 4 for fortune, 5 for tomorrow 6 & 7 for loss & sorrow
