lyrics

Verse 1
As I was going over the far famed Kerry mountains
I met with Captain Farrell and his money he was count'n
I first produced me pistol, and I then produced me rapier
I said stand and deliver for you are a bold deceiver

Chorus
Musha ring uma du uma da
Whack fol the daddy o
Whack fol the daddy o
There's whiskey in the jar

Verse 2
I counted out his money and it made a pretty penny
So 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 take the women for they never can be easy

Chorus

Verse 3
And if anyone can aid me, it’s me brother in the army
If I could find his station in Cork or in Killarney
And if he'll go with me we'll go roving through Kilkenny
I'm sure he'll treat me better than me own dear sporting Jenny

Chorus

Verse 4
Some take delight in the carriages a’rolling
And others take delight in the hurling and the bowling
But I take delight in the juice of the barley
And court’n pretty fair maids in the morning bright and early

Chorus
