Over deze songtekst:

'The Parting Glass' was een heel populair Iers/Schots lied dat veel gezongen werd. Vaak aan het einde van een bijeenkomst. Haar populariteit nam af toen Robert Burns zijn 'Auld Lang Syne' uitbracht.
Bob Dylan's song 'Restless Farewell' is gebaseerd op dit lied.

Of all the money that here I spent
I spent it in good company
And of all the harm that here I've done
Alas was done to none but me
And all I've done for want of wit
To memory now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Goodnight and joy be with you all

Oh, if I had money enough to spend 
And leisure time to sit awhile
There's a fair young man in this town 
That sorely has my heart beguiled
His rosy cheeks and lovely lips
Alone he has my heart in thrall
So fill to me the parting glass
Goodnight and joy be with you all

Of all the comrades that here I've had
They're sorry for my going away
And of all the sweethearts that here I had
They wish me one more day to stay
But since it falls unto my lot 
That I should rise and you should not
I will gently rise and softly call
Goodnight and joy be with you all
