Artist/Band: Thin Lizzy
Lyrics for Song: Whiskey In The Jar
Lyrics for Album: Icon [2011]



As I was goin' over the Cork and Kerry mountains

I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was countin'

I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier

I said stand and deliver or the devil he may take ya



(Chorus)

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da

Wait for my daddy-o

Wait for my daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar-o



I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny

I took all of his money and I brought it home to Molly

She swore that she'd love me, never would she leave me

But the devil take that woman for you know she tricked me easy



(chorus)



Being drunk and weary I went to Molly's chamber

Takin' my Molly with me and I never knew the danger

For about six or maybe seven in walked Captain Farrell

I jumped up, fired off my pistols and I shot him with both barrels



Now some men like the fishin' and some men like the fowlin'

And some men like ta hear a cannon ball a roarin'

Me I like sleepin' specially in my Molly's chamber

But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain yeah



(chrous)
