Whiskey In The Jar (traditional)
------------------

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
ya

Musha ring dum a doo dum 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
treat me easy

Being drunk and weary I went to Molly's chamber
Takin' 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

Now some men like the fishin' and some men like
the fowlin'
And some men like ta hear a 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
