Whisky in the Jar

As I was going over the Kilmagenny mountains
 I met with captain Farrel and his money he was counting
 I first prodused my pistol, and then I drew my sabre
 Saying: "Stand and deliver, for I am a bold deceiver!"
 Wish a ring a ra do rum di
 Whack fol me daddio
 Whack fol me daddio
 There's whisky in the jar
 I counted out his money, and it made a pretty penny
 I put it in my pocket and I sent it home to Jenny
 She smiled and she swore that she never would deceive me
 But the devil take the women for they never can be easy
 Wish a ring a ra do rum di
 Whack fol me daddio
 Whack fol me daddio
 There's whisky in the jar
 I went into my chamber for to take a little slumber
 I dreamed of gold and silver and sure it was no wonder
 For Jenny drew my charges and filled them up with water
 Then called for captain Farrel to be ready for the slaughter
 Wish a ring a ra do rum di
 Whack fol me daddio
 Whack fol me daddio
 There's whisky in the jar
 It was early in the morning before I arose to travel
 Along came a band of footmen and likewise captain Farrel
 I first prodused my pistol, and then I drew my sabre
 But you cannot shoot with water so a prisoner I was taken
 Wish a ring a ra do rum di
 Whack fol me daddio
 Whack fol me daddio
 There's whisky in the jar
 If anyone can help me it's my brother in the army
 If I could find his station be it Cork or Killarny
 I know he'd come and see me we'd go roving in Kilkenny
 I bet he'd treat me better than my darling sporting Jenny
 Wish a ring a ra do rum di
 Whack fol me daddio
 Whack fol me daddio
 There's whisky in the jar
 Wish a ring a ra do rum di
 Whack fol me daddio
 Whack fol me daddio
 There's whisky in the jar
