A few alternative Rover lyrics which come more or less from JAC:


It's when he came to his true love's window,
He gently knelt down all on the stone,
He whispered softly throught the keyhole,
Ah my darling, are you alone?

She raised her head from her soft white pillow,
And almost naked was her breast,
Who's that tapping upon my window,
Disturbing me from my long night's rest?

It is your true love, pray don't discover,
But open the door love and let me in,
For I am wet from my long night's journey,
Besides I'm wet love unto the skin.

She raised her up with the greatest of pleasure,
She raised her up and she let him in,
And they were locked in each other's arrums,
Till the long night had been and gone.

And when this long night was passed and over,
And the cocks they began to crow,
Farewell my true love and I'll be seeing you,
For a-roving I must obey.


He's got a line about 'going to Georgetown' in there somewhere as well; can't remember ...
