Smokie ☆ Whiskey In The Jar

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 oer and deliver or the devil he may take ya.

Musha ring dum a do dum a da.
Whack for my daddy-o,
Whack for my daddy-o.
Theres 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 shed love me, never would she leave me.
But the devil take that woman for you know she tricked me easy.

Musha ring dum a do dum a da.
Whack for my daddy-o,
Whack for my daddy-o.
Theres whiskey in the jar-o.

Being drunk and weary I went to Mollys chamber.
Takin my money 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 dum a da.
Whack for my daddy-o,
Whack for my daddy-o.
Theres whiskey in the jar-o.

Now some men like the fishin and some men like the fowlin,
And some men like ta hear a cannon ball a roarin.
Me? I like sleepin specially in my Mollys chamber.
But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain, yeah.

Musha ring dum a do dum a da.
Whack for my daddy-o,
Whack for my daddy-o.
Theres whiskey in the jar-o.

And I got drunk on whiskey-o
And I love, I love, I love, I love, I love, I love my Molly-o.
