Whiskey in the Jar (feat. The Dubliners & Cast)

The title is called "Whiskey in the Jar"

As I was goin' over the far famed Kerry mountains

I met with captain Farrell and his money he was counting

I first produced me pistol and I then produced me rapier

Saying "Stand and deliver" For he were a bold deceiver

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da

Whack for my daddy-o

Whack for my daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

I went up to my chamber, all for to take a slumber

I dreamt of gold and jewels and I'm sure 't was no wonder

But Jenny drew me pistol, she filled it up with water

And sent for captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da

Whack for my daddy-o

Whack for my daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

Early in the morning, just before I rose to travel

Up comes a band of footmen and likewise captain Farrell

I first produced me pistol for me rapier she had stolen

I could not shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da

Whack for my daddy-o

Whack for my daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

If anyone can aid me 't is my brother in the army

If I can find his station in Cork or in Killarney

And if he'll go with me, we'll go rovin' in Killkenny

And I'm sure he'll treat me better than his slave as even Jenny

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da

Whack for my daddy-o

Whack for my daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

Now there's some take delight in the carriages a-rollin'

And others take delight in the hurling and the bowling

But I take delight in the juice of the barley

And courting pretty fair maids in the morning bright and early

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da

Whack for my daddy-o

Whack for my daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da

Whack for my daddy-o

Whack for my daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar
