Whiskey In The Jar

In the style of

The Irish Rovers

Lyrics

as i was ridin' over
the far-famed
kerry mountains

i met with
captain farrell
and his money
he was countin'

i first produced
me pistol
and then i drew
me saber
sayin' stand
and deliver
for i am
a bold deceiver

musha ringum
durum da
whack fol
de daddy-o
whack fol
de daddy-o
there's whiskey
in the jar

i robbed
captain farrell
up on
kilgarry mountain
i took the gold
to jenny
for to help me
with the countin'

jenny called
the guards
god i never seen
so many
i nearly
lost me freedom
for me darlin'
sportin' jenny

musha ringum
durum da
whack fol
de daddy-o
whack fol
de daddy-o
there's whiskey
in the jar

i went up
to me chamber
all for
to take a slumber
i dreamed
of golden jewels
for sure
it was no wonder

for jenny
took me charges
and filled them up
with water
and sent for
captain farrell
to be ready
for the slaughter

musha ringum
durum da
whack fol
de daddy-o
whack fol
de daddy-o
there's whiskey
in the jar

i'd like to find
me brother
the one that's
in the army
if i can find a station
be it cork
or in killarney

and if he'll go with me
we'll go roamin'
in kilkenny
and i swear
he'd treat me better
than me own dear
sportin' jenny

musha ringum
durum da
whack fol
de daddy-o
whack fol
de daddy-o
there's whiskey
in the jar

musha ringum
durum da
whack fol
de daddy-o

whack fol
de daddy-o
there's whiskey
in the jar

there's some delight
in fishin'
and some delight
in bowlin'
and some take delight
in their
carriages a-rollin'

but i take delight
in the juice
o' the barley
and courtin'
pretty girls
in the mornin'
bright and early

musha ringum
durum da
whack fol
de daddy-o
whack fol
de daddy-o
there's whiskey
in the jar

musha ringum
durum da
whack fol
de daddy-o
whack fol
de daddy-o
there's whiskey
in the jar
