Whiskey in the jar

by Simple Minds

lyricscopy.com
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 you!"

Musha ring dum a doo dam 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 tricked me easy

Musha ring dum a doo dam a da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There´s whiskey in the jar-o

Being drunk and weary, I went to Molly´s chamber
Takin´ my Molly 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 do dam a da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There´s whiskey in the jar-o

Now some men like the fishin´ and some men like the fowlin´
And some men like to hear the 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

Musha ring dum a do dam a da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There´s whiskey in the jar-o
