Eamonn Carr - Whiskey in the Jar Lyrics

As I was a going over the Cork Kerry Mountains
I saw Captain Farrell, he was counting all his money

I first produced my pistol, then produced my rapier
And I said stand and deliver or the devil he may take you

With a mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Waiting for my daddy-o
Waiting for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar, oh

I took all his money, it was a pretty penny
I took all his money, and brought it home to Molly
She swore that she loved me
She'd never leave me
But the devil take that woman
For you know, she tricked me easy

With a mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Waiting for my daddy-o
Waiting for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar, oh

Now some men they like fishing
Some men they like fowling
And some men like to hear
A cannonball, hear it's roaring

But me I like sleeping in my Molly's chamber
But here I am in prison
With a ball, a ball and chain yeah

With a mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Waiting for my daddy-o
Waiting for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar, oh
