Whiskey In The Jar
WHISKEY IN THE JAR
as i was a goin' over the cork and kerry mountains i met with captain farrell and his money he was counting i first produced me pistol and then produced me rapier and said 'stand and deliver' for he was a bold deceiver
mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da wack fall the daddy-o, wack fall the daddy-o there's whiskey in the jar
i counted out his money and it made a pretty penny i put it in me pocket and i took it home to jenny she sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me but the devil take the women for they never can be easy
mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da wack fall the daddy-o, wack fall the daddy-o there's whiskey in the jar
i went up to my chamber, all to take a slumber i dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure it was no wonder but jenny drew me charges and she filled them up with water then sent for captain farrell to be ready for the slaughter
mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com wack fall the daddy-o, wack fall the daddy-o 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 farrell i first produced me pistol for she stole away me rapier but i couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner i was taken
mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da wack fall the daddy-o, wack fall the daddy-o there's whiskey in the jar
if anyone can aid me it's me brother in the army if i can find his station in cork or in killarney and if he will go with me, we'll go rovin' in kilkenny i'm sure he'll treat me better than my own a-sporting jenny
mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da wack fall the daddy-o, wack fall the daddy-o there's whiskey in the jar
mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da wack fall the daddy-o, wack fall the daddy-o there's whiskey in the jar
