As I was going over the far famed Kerry mountains I met with captain Farrell and his money he was counting I first produced my pistol, and I then produced my rapier Said stand and deliver, for you are 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 betray me But the devil take the women, 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, all for to take a slumber I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure it was no wonder But Jenny took my charges and she filled them up with water Then sent for captain Farrel 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, just before I rose for travel Come on a band of footmen and likewise captain Farrel I first produced me pistol, for she stole away me 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 Now some take delight in the carriages a rolling But others take delight in the harley 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 If anyone can aid me, it's me brother in the army If I can find his station down in Cork or in Killarney And if he'll go with me, we'll go roving in Kilkenny And I'm sure he'll treat me better than me sporting Jenny 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
