Whiskey in the jar Lyrics

As I was going over, the far famed kerry mountains
I met with captain farrell and the money he was counting
I first produced me pistol, and then produced me rapier
Said "stand and deliver", for I am a bold deciever

(chorus)
With me ring duma do duma dah
Whack for the daddy o
Whack for the daddy o
There's whiskey in the jar


I counted out me money, and I made a pretty penny
I put it in me pocket and I sent it home to jenny
She sighed and she swore that, she never would decieve me
Let the devil take the women for they never can be easy

(chorus)

I went into me chamber, for all to take a slumber
I dreamt of gold and jewels, and for sure it was no wonder
That jenny blew me charges, and filled them up with water
And sent for captain farrell, to be ready for the slaughter

Twas early in the morning, before I rose to travel
There comes a band of footman, all led by captain farrell
I first produced me pistol, for she stole away me rapier
I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken

(chorus)

Well if anyone can aid me, it's my brother in the army
If I can find a station, in cork or in killarny
And if he'll go with me, we'll go roaming in kilkenny
I'm sure he'll treat me better, then more own sporting jenny

(chorus 2x)
