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, or the devil he may take you!" |
|
Musha ring dum a doo dam a da |
|
Whack for my daddy-o |
|
Whack for my daddy-o |
|
There's whiskey in the jar-o |
|
I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny |
|
I took all of his money and |
|
I brought it home to |
|
Molly She swore that she'd love me, never would she leave me |
|
But the devil take that woman, for you know she tricked me easy |
|
Musha ring dum a doo dam 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 |
|
Molly 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 |
|
Musha ring dum a do dam a da |
|
Whack for my daddy-o |
|
Whack for my daddy-o |
|
There's whiskey in the jar-o |
|
Now some men like the fishin' and some men like the fowlin' |
|
And some men like to hear the cannon ball a-roarin' |
|
Me, I like sleepin', 'specially in my |
|
Molly's chamber |
|
But here I am in prison, here |
|
I am with a ball and chain yeah |
|
Musha ring dum a do dam a da |
|
Whack for my daddy-o |
|
Whack for my daddy-o |
