whiskey in the jar - firkin lyrics
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 you are a bold deceiver”
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
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 takes the women for they never can be easy
i went up to my chamber, all for to take a slumber
i dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure ‘t was no wonder
but jenny drew me charges and she filled them up with water
then sent for captain farrell to be ready for the slaughter
it 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’s stolen away me rapier
but i couldn’t shoot the water, so a prisoner i was taken
if anyone can aid me ’tis my brother in the army
if i can find a station in cork or in k!llarney
and if he’ll go with me, we’ll go rovin’ through k!llkenny
and i’m sure he’ll treat me better than my own a-sporting jenny
