--- Start Of Whiskey In The Jar Lyrics ---

As I was going over ... the far famed Kerry mountains
I met with captain Farrell and his money he was counting
I first produced my pistol ... and then produced my rapier
Said stand and deliver for you are a bold deceiver

Musha ring dumma do damma da ... whack for the daddy 'ol
Whack for the daddy 'ol there's whiskey in the 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 said and she swore, that she never would deceive me
But the devil take the women, for they never can be easy


Musha ring dumma do damma da ... whack for the daddy 'ol
Whack for the daddy 'ol there's whiskey in the jar

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

Musha ring dumma do damma da ... whack for the daddy 'ol
Whack for the daddy 'ol there's whiskey in the jar

It was early in the morning, just before I rose to travel
Up comes a band of footmen and likewise captain Farrel
I first produced my pistol, for she stole away my rapier
But I couldn't shoot the water so a prisoner I was taken

Musha ring dumma do damma da ... whack for the daddy 'ol
Whack for the daddy 'ol there's whiskey in the jar


BREAK

Now some take delight in the carriages a rolling
And others take delight in the hurling and the boling
But I take delight in the juice of the barley
And courting pretty fair maids in the morning bright and early

Musha ring dumma do damma da ... whack for the daddy 'ol
Whack for the daddy 'ol there's whiskey in the jar

If anyone can aid me, it's my brother in the army
If I can find his station down in Cork or in Killarney
And if he'll go with me, we'll go roving in Kilkenny
And I swear he'll treat me better than me darling sport ole Jenny

Musha ring dumma do damma da ... whack for the daddy 'ol
Whack for the daddy 'ol there's whiskey in the jar
Musha ring dumma do damma da ... whack for the daddy 'ol
Whack for the daddy 'ol there's whiskey in the jar
