Hartmut Krech - Whiskey in the Jar lyrics

[Strophe 1:] As I was a 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 [Refrain:] Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da Wack fall the daddy-o Wack fall the daddy-o There's whiskey in the jar [Strophe 2:] 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 [Refrain:] Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da Wack fall the daddy-o Wack fall the daddy-o There's whiskey in the jar [Strophe 3:] I went up to my chamber All for to take a slumber I dreamt of gold and j**els and for sure 't was no wonder But Jenny blew me charges And she filled them up with water The sent for captain Ferrell To be ready for the slaughter [Refrain:] Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da Wack fall the daddy-o Wack fall the daddy-o There's whiskey in the jar [Strophe 4:] 'T was 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 she stole away me rapier I couldn't shoot the water So a prisoner I was taken [Refrain:] Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da Wack fall the daddy-o Wack fall the daddy-o There's whiskey in the jar [Strophe 5:] Now there's some take delight In the carriages a rolling And others take delight In the hurling and and the bowling But I take delight in the juice of the barley And counting pretty fair maids in the morning Bright and early [Refrain:] Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da Wack fall the daddy-o Wack fall the daddy-o There's whiskey in the jar [Bridge:] Whiskey, Whiskey, Whiskey, Whiskey in the jar (2x) [Refrain:] 2x Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da Wack fall the daddy-o Wack fall the daddy-o There's whiskey in the jar
