Dubliners - Whiskey in the jar

As ^CI was going over the ^Amcork and Kerry mountains, I ^Fmet with Captain Farrel and his ^Cmoney he was counting. I first produced my pistol and ^Amthen produced my rapier, Saying '^FStand and deliver for you ^Care my bold deceiver'.

Musha ^Gring dum a doo dum a da ^CWhack fol the daddy o, ^FWhack fol the daddy o, There's ^Cwhiskey ^Gin the ^Cjar.

He ^Ccounted out his money and it ^Amwas a pretty penny I ^Fput it in my pocket and I ^Ctook it home to Jenny She sighed and she swore that ^Amnever would she leave me But ^Fthe devil take the women for they ^Cnever can be easy

I ^Cwent into my chamber all ^Amfor to take a slumber, I ^Fdreamt of gold and jewels and for ^Csure it was no wonder. But Jenny drew my charges, she ^Amfilled them up with water, She ^Fsent for Captain Farrel to be ^Cready for the slaughter.

'Twas ^Cearly in the morning, just ^Ambefore I rose to travel Up ^Fcomes a band of troopers ^Clikewise Captain Farrel I then produced my pistol for she ^Amstole away my rapier But ^FI couldn't shoot the water, so a ^Cprisoner I was taken

Now ^Cthere's some take delight in the ^Amcarriages a rolling and ^Fothers take delight in the ^Churling and the bowling but I take delight in the ^Amjuice of the barley and ^Fcourting pretty fair maids in the ^Cmorning bright and early

If ^Canyone can help me, it's my ^Ambrother in the army, If ^FI can find his station be it ^CCork or in Killarney. And if he'd come and join me, we'd go ^Amroving in Kilkenny. And ^Fi'm sure he'll treat me better than my ^Cown a-sporting Jenny.
