Whiskey in the jar

As I was a-going over the far famed Kerry mountains
I met with Captain Farrell and his money he was counting
I first produced my pistol and I then produced my rapier
Saying "stand and deliver" for he were a bold deceiver

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Whack fol my daddy-o
Whack fol my daddy-oa
There′s whiskey in the jar
Jar, jar, jar, jar, jar, jar

There's whiskey in the jar
Jar, jar, jar, jar, jar, jar


I counted out his money, and it made a pretty penny
I put it in my pocket, and I took it home to Jenny
She sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me
But the devil take the women for they never can be easy

Mush-a ring dum-a do
Dum-a da da da da da
Whack fol my daddy-o
There′s whiskey in the jar

I went up to my chamber, all for to take a slumber
I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure it was no wonder
But Jenny drew my charges, and she filled them up with water
Then sent for Captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter

Mush-a ring dum-a do
Dum-a da da da da da
Whack fol my daddy-o
Whack fol my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar
Jar, jar, jar, jar, jar, jar


There's whiskey in the jar
Jar, jar, jar, jar, jar, jar,jar
