Whiskey in the Jar Lyrics

As I was going over the cork and kerry mountains

 

I saw captain farrell and his money he was counting

 

I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier

 

I said stand and deliver or the devil he may take ya

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da

 

Whack for my daddy oh

 

Whack for my daddy oh

There's whiskey in the jar oh-oh

 

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 shed 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 dum a da

 

Whack for my daddy oh

 

Whack for my daddy oh

There's whiskey in the jar oh-oh

 

Being drunk and weary I went to mollys chamber

 

Taking 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

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da

 

Whack for my daddy oh

 

Whack for my daddy oh

There's whiskey in the jar oh

 

Now some men like the fishing and some men like the fowling

 

And some men like to hear to hear the cannon ball roaring

But me I like sleeping specially in my mollys chamber

 

But here I am in prison here I am with a ball and chain yeah

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da

 

Whack for my daddy oh

 

Whack for my daddy oh

There's whiskey in the jar oh

 

I come sure go with you

 

 

I love I love I love I love let's go
