We'll Go No More A-Roving

        TTTO The Jolly Beggar (Child 279)

My name is Opportunity
I've wandered near and far
And with my sister Spirit
I've explored the sands of Mars

We came here fourteen years ago
And went our separate ways
I guess we lived on borrowed time
They gave us ninety days


    We'll go no more a-roving
    A-roving in the night
    We'll go no more a-roving
    Let the moons shine so bright
    We'll go no more a-roving.

Nine years ago my sister
Got her wheels stuck in the sand
But still that's twenty times as long
As anyone had planned.

My batteries are getting low
And dust is in the sky
So wish me luck and fare thee well
I will not say goodbye



    We'll go no more a-roving
    A-roving in the night
    We'll go no more a-roving
    Let the moons shine so bright
    We'll go no more a-roving.

If I don't make it through the storm
No need to shed a tear
When you come up to visit me
I'll still be standing here.

And when some day you find me out
Upon the Martian plain,
Just fix me up and send me off
A-roving once again.


    We'll go once more a-roving
    Both  in the day and night
    We'll go once more a-roving
    Where the moons are shining bright
    We'll go once more a-roving.
