Whisky In The Jar

As I was a-going over the killing Kerry mountain

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 the bold deceiver

With Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da

Whack for the daddy-o

Whack for the daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

I counted out his money and it was a pretty penny

And I put it in my pocket and I gave it to my Jenny

She sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me

But the devil take those women cos they never can be easy

With Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da

Whack for the daddy-o

Whack for the daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

Now some men take delight in the hurling and the bowling

And others take delight in the carriages a-rolling

But me I take delight in the juice of the barley

And courting pretty women when the song that's bright and early

With Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da

Whack for the daddy-o

Whack for the daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

With Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da

Whack for the daddy-o

Whack for the daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar
