Lyrics Whiskey in the Jar

As I was going over the Kilmagenny mountain
I met with captain Farrell and his money he was counting
I first produced my pistol and
I've then produced me rapier
Said stand and deliver for I am 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 sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me
But the devil take the woman 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 for all to take a slumber
I dreamt of golden jewels for sure it was no wonder
But Jenny drew me charges and filled them up with water
Then sent for Captain Farrell 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 before I rose to travel
Up comes a band with footmen and likewise captain Farrell
I first produced my pistol for she'd stolen 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
If anyone can aid me it's my brother in the army
If I can find his station in Cork or in Killarney
And if he'll go with me we'll go roaming in Kilkenny
And I'll sure he'll treat me better than my own disporting Jenny
Musha ring dumma do damma da
Whack for the daddy 'ol
Whack for the daddy 'ol
There's whiskey in the jar
There's some take delight in the carriages a rolling
And others take delight in the hurling and the bowling
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
Musha ring dumma do damma da
Whack for the daddy 'ol
Whack for the daddy 'ol
There's whiskey in the jar
