Whiskey in the jar

(originaly recorded by Thin Lizzy)



As i was goin� over the Cork and Kerry mouintains

I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was countin�

I first produced my pistols ans then produced my rapier

I said stand and deliver or the devil he may take ya



I took all pf his money and it was a pretty penny

I took all of his money and brought it home to Molly

She swore that she�d love me, never would she leave me

But devil take that woman for you know she treat me easy



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



Now some men like the fishin�and some man like zhe fowlin�

And some man like ta hear, ta hear cannon ball a roarin�

Me i like sleepin�specially in Molly�s chamber

But here I am in prison, here i am with ball and chain yeah



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



Whiskey in the jar-o

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
