Whiskey In The Jar Lyrics

As I was going over the Kilmagenny mountain
I met with captain Farrell and his money he was
counting.
I first produced my pistol, and then produced my
rapier.
Said stand and deliver, for you are a bold deceiver,

with your ring dumma do damma da
whack for the daddy 'ol
whack for the daddy 'ol
there's whiskey in the jar

I counted out his money, it made a pretty penny.
I put it in my pocket and I took it home to Jenny.
She swore that she loved me, that never would she leave
me,
but the devil take that woman, for you know she tricked
me easy

ring dumma do damma da
whack for the daddy 'ol
whack for the daddy 'ol
there's whiskey in the jar

It was early in the morning, before I rose to travel,
up came a band of footmen and likewise captain Farrel.
I first produced my pistol, for she stole away my
rapier,
and I couldn't shoot the captain so a prisoner I was
taken. ring dumma do damma da
whack for the daddy 'ol
whack for the daddy 'ol
there's whiskey in the jar

Now some men they like drinking and some men they like
fighting
And some men like to hear, the sound of the cannon ball
roaring
Me, I like sleeping specially in Jenny's chambers
But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and
chain yeah

ring dumma do damma da
whack for the daddy 'ol
whack for the daddy 'ol
there's whiskey in the jar

As I was going over the Kilmagenny mountain
I met with captain Farrell and his money he was
counting.
I first produced my pistol, and then produced my
rapier.
Said stand and deliver, for you are a bold deceiver,

ring dumma do damma da
whack for the daddy 'ol
whack for the daddy 'ol
there's whiskey in the jar

ring dumma do damma da
whack for the daddy 'ol
whack for the daddy 'ol
there's whiskey in the jar
