Whiskey In The Jar
As FI was goin' over the Amfar famed Kerry mountains,
I Fmet with Captain Farrel and his Fmoney he was Gcountin'
I Ffirst produced me pistol and Amthen produced me rapier,
SayinF' "Stand and deliver foFr you are a bold deceiver"
Musha Grig um du rum da
FWhack fol the daddy O,
FWhack fol the daddy O,
There's Fwhiskey Gin the Fjar.
I Fcounted out his money and it Ammade a pretty penny
I Fput it in me pocket and I Ftook it home to my GJenny
She Fsighed and she swore that she Amnever would deceive me
But the Fdevil take the women for they Fnever can be easy
Musha Grig um du rum da
FWhack fol the daddy O,
FWhack fol the daddy O,
There's Fwhiskey Gin the Fjar.
I Fwent up to my chamber, all Amfor to take a slumber
I Fdreamt of gold and jewels and for Fsure 't was no Gwonder
But FJenny drew me charges and she Amfilled them up with water
Then Fsent for captain Farrell to be Fready for the slaughter
Musha Grig um du rum da
FWhack fol the daddy O,
FWhack fol the daddy O,
There's Fwhiskey Gin the Fjar.
't was Fearly in the morning, just beAmfore I rose to travel
Up Fcomes a band of footmen and likeFwise captain GFarrell
I Ffirst produced me pistol for she Amstole away me rapier
I Fcouldn't shoot the water, so a Fprisoner I was taken
Musha Grig um du rum da
FWhack fol the daddy O,
FWhack fol the daddy O,
There's Fwhiskey Gin the Fjar.
Now Fthere's some take delight in the Amcarriages a rolling
and Fothers take delight in the Fhurling and the Gbowling
but FI take delight in the Amjuice of the barley
and Fcourting pretty fair maids in the Fmorning bright and early
Musha Grig um du rum da
FWhack fol the daddy O,
FWhack fol the daddy O,
There's Fwhiskey Gin the Fjar.
If Fanyone can aid me 't is me Ambrother in the army
If FI can find his station in FCork or in KiGllarney
And Fif he'll go with me, we'll go Amrovin' through Killkenny
And FI'm sure he'll treat me better than my Fown a-sporting Jenny
Musha Grig um du rum da
FWhack fol the daddy O,
FWhack fol the daddy O,
There's Fwhiskey Gin the Fjar.
