WHISKEY IN THE JAR

 
As I was goin' over
The Cork and Kerry mountains
I saw Captain Farrell
And his money he was countin' 
I first produced my pistol 
And then produced my rapier 
I said "stand and deliver"
Oh! Or the devil he may take ya 

Yeah yeah.

I took all of his money 
And it was a pretty penny 
I took all of his money 
Yeah and I brought it home to Molly
She swore whole that she'd love me, 
No never would she leave me 
But the devil take that woman 
Yeah for you know she trick me easy 

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o 
Whack for my daddy-o 
There's whiskey in the jar-o
 
Being drunk and weary
I went to Molly's chamber 
Takin' my money with me
And I never knew the danger 
For about six or maybe seven 
In walked Captain Farrell 
I jumped up, fired off my pistols 
And I shot him with both barrels 

Yeah Musha ring dum a doo dum a da hea hea

And some men like the fowlin' 
And some men like ta hear 
Ta hear a cannon ball aroarin' 
But me I like sleepin' 
Especially in my Molly's chamber 
But here I am in prison, 
Here I am with a ball and chain yeah
