13.Whiskey In The Jar
As I was goin' over the Cork and Kerry mountains ／ I met Captain
Farrell and his money he
was countin' ／ I first produced my pistol and then produced my
wager ／ I said stand and
deliver or the devil he may take ya ／ Oh ring dum a doo dum a da
／ Wept for my daddy-o
Wept for my daddy-o ／ There's 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
she'd love me, never would she leave me ／ But the devil take
that woman 'cos you know she
treats me easy ／ Oh ring dum a doo dum a da ／ Wept for my
daddy-o ／ Wept for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o ／ Being drunk and weary I went to
Molly's chamber ／ I lay
down on the bed and I never knew the danger ／ For about six or
maybe seven in walked
Captain Farrell ／ I jumped up, grabbed hold of my pistols and I
shot him with both barrels
／ Oh ring dum a doo dum a da ／ Wept for my daddy-o ／ Wept for my
daddy-o ／ There's whiskey
in the jar-o ／ Now some men like fishin' and some men like a
fowlin' ／ And some men like
ta hear a cannon ball a rollin' ／ Me I like sleepin' specially
in my Molly's chamber ／ But
here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain yeah ／ Oh
ring dum a doo dum a da
Wept for my daddy-o ／ Wept for my daddy-o ／ There's whiskey in
the jar-o ／ Ahlalalala,
lalala.....
