歌词
As I was goin' over the Cork and Kerry mountains
I met with Captain Farrell, and his money, he was counting
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier
Said, "Stand and deliver, for you are the bold deceiver"
Musha ring, dum-a-do, dum-a-da, whack for the daddy-o
Whack for the daddy-o, there's whiskey in the jar
I took all of his money, and it was a pretty penny
I put it in my pocket and I brought 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
Musha ring, dum-a-do, dum-a-da, whack for the daddy-o
Whack for the daddy-o, there's whiskey in the jar
I went into my chamber all for to take a slumber
I dreamt of golden jewels, and for sure, it was a wonder
For Jenny drew my charges, and she filled them up with water
Then sent for Captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter
Musha ring, dum-a-do, dum-a-da, whack for the daddy-o
Whack for the daddy-o, there's whiskey in the jar
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
'Twas early in the mornin' just before I rose to travel
Up came a band of footmen and likewise Captain Farrell
So I first produced my pistol, for she stole away my rapier
But I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken
Musha ring, dum-a-do, dum-a-da, whack for the daddy-o
Whack for the daddy-o, there's whiskey in the jar
Musha ring, dum-a-do, dum-a-da, whack for the daddy-o
Whack for the daddy-o, there's whiskey in the jar
If anyone can aid me, it's my brother in the Army
And if I could find his station in Cork or in Killarney
And if he'd go with me, we'd go rovin' through Kilkenny
And I'm sure he'd treat me better than me darlin' sportin' Jenny
Musha ring, dum-a-do, dum-a-da, whack for the daddy-o
Whack for the daddy-o, there's whiskey in the jar
Musha ring, dum-a-do, dum-a-da, whack for the daddy-o
Whack for the daddy-o, there's whiskey in the jar
Musha ring, dum-a-do, dum-a-da, whack for the daddy-o
Whack for the daddy-o, there's whiskey in the jar
