The Lyrics
I’ve been a wild joker for many a year
Playing pranks on everybody without any fear
But lately some people are really quite sore
So I never will play the wild joker no more
And it’s no nay never, no nay never no more
Will I play the wild joker, no never, no more
One time I placed a whoopee cushion under her chair
When she set off the noise she leaped high in the air
Her face changed to red and her anger was clear
So I left the room quickly and got me a beer
And it’s no nay never, no nay never no more
Will I play the wild joker, no never, no more
I was once treated rudely by a man in brown slacks
So I doctored his food with a dose of Ex-Lax
As he ran from the room we all heard his howls
When something quite dreadful escaped from his bowels
And it’s no nay never, no nay never no more
Will I play the wild joker, no never, no more
So now that me practical joking is done
I’ll have to look elsewhere for a new form of fun
Perhaps I can find me a crazy new game
But I doubt very much it will all be the same
And it’s no nay never, no nay never no more
Will I play the wild joker, no never, no more
Playing pranks on everybody without any fear
But lately some people are really quite sore
So I never will play the wild joker no more
And it’s no nay never, no nay never no more
Will I play the wild joker, no never, no more
One time I placed a whoopee cushion under her chair
When she set off the noise she leaped high in the air
Her face changed to red and her anger was clear
So I left the room quickly and got me a beer
And it’s no nay never, no nay never no more
Will I play the wild joker, no never, no more
I was once treated rudely by a man in brown slacks
So I doctored his food with a dose of Ex-Lax
As he ran from the room we all heard his howls
When something quite dreadful escaped from his bowels
And it’s no nay never, no nay never no more
Will I play the wild joker, no never, no more
So now that me practical joking is done
I’ll have to look elsewhere for a new form of fun
Perhaps I can find me a crazy new game
But I doubt very much it will all be the same
And it’s no nay never, no nay never no more
Will I play the wild joker, no never, no more

You've posted several fun parodies the last few days, Jester. If I may be so bold, here's an alternate ending: "And it’s no nay never, no nay never no more / Will I play the wild joker - well maybe once more." Good work, keep 'em coming!
I echo Rex's first and last sentences. But the refrain in another OS version is
Wild rover, give o'er wild rovin',
And I never shall play the wild rover no more.
Wild rover, give o'er wild rovin',
And I never shall play the wild rover no more.
Rex, thanks for the encouragement and your suggestion. I am going to use that ending!
Thanks Barry - - appreciate the good thoughts.
