Karaoké Whiskey in the Jar (live) The Dubliners

As I was goin' 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

Saying stand and deliver for he were a bold deceiver

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da whack for my daddy-oh

Whack for my daddy-oh there's whiskey in the jar

I counted out his money and it made a pretty penny

I put it in me pocket and

I took it home to Jenny

She sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me

But the devil take the women for they never can be easy

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da whack for my daddy-oh

Whack for my daddy-oh 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 for sure it was no wonder

But Jenny drew me charges and she filled them up with water

Then sent for captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da whack for my daddy-oh

Whack for my daddy-oh there's whiskey in the jar

It was was early in the morning just before I rose to travel

Up comes a band of footmen and like wise 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

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da whack for my daddy-oh

Whack for my daddy-oh there's whiskey in the jar

If anyone can aid me it's 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 my own a-sporting Jenny

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da whack for my daddy-oh

Whack for my daddy-oh there's whiskey in the jar

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da whack for my daddy-oh

Whack for my daddy-oh there's whiskey in the jar ooh
