Irish Folk
As CI was going over the Amfar famed Kerry mountains,
I Fmet with Captain Farrell and his Cmoney he was Gcount'n.
I fCirst produced me pistol, andAm then produced me rapier,
Saying Fstand and deliver for you Care the bold deceiver.

There's Cwhiskey Gin the Cjar
I Ccounted out his money and it Ammade a pretty penny,
I Fput it in me pocket and I Ctook it home to JGenny.
ShCe sighed and she swore that she Amnever would deceive me,
But the Fdevil take the women for they Cnever can be easy.

I Cwent up to me chamber all Amfor to take a slumber
I Fdreamt of gold and jewels and Csure it was no Gwonder,
BuCt Jenny drew me charges and she Amfilled them up with water,
And Fsent for Captain Farrel, to be Cready for the slaughter.

'TCwas early in the morning bAmefore I rose to travel,
UpF comes a band of footmen and Clikewise Captain GFarrell;
I Cfirst produce my pistol, for she Amstole away my rapier
But I Fcouldn't shoot the water, so a Cprisoner I was taken.

AnCd if anyone can aid me, 'tAmis my brother in the army,
IfF I could learn his station in CCork or in GKillarney.
AnCd if he'd come and join me we'd go Amroving through Kilkenny,
I'm Fsure he'd treat me fairer than Cmy own sporting Jenny.

ThCere's some takes delight iAmn the carriages a rolling,
SoFme takes delight in the Churlin' or the Gbowlin'.
BuCt I takes delight in the Amjuice of the barley,
And Fcourting pretty fair maids in the Cmorning bright and early.
