As I was going over...

Post by chozen2 »

the Cork and Kerry Mountains
I saw Captain Ferrel, his money he was a-countin'
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier
I said, "Stand and deliver, or the devil he may take ya"
I took hold 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 loved me, no never would she leave me
But the devil take that woman, for you know she tricked me easy
Musha ring dum-a-doo dum-a-da
Wept for my daddy-o
Wept for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o!
Being drunk and weary, I went to Molly's chamber
Takin' my Molly with me, but I never knew the danger
For 'bout six or maybe seven, in walked Captain Farrell
I jumped up with my pistols, and I shot him with both barrels
Musha ring dum-a-doo dum-a-da
Wept for my daddy-o
Wept for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o!






























































































































































































Now some men like a-fishin', some men like the fowlin'
Some men like to hear -- to hear the cannonball a-roarin'
But me, I like sleepin', 'specially in my Molly's chamber
But here I am in prison! here I am with ball and chain
Musha ring dum-a-doo dum-a-da
Wept for my daddy-o
Wept for my daddy-o
And there's whiskey in the jar-o!
Whiskey in the jar-o!

That version sucks simply by virtue that Metallica got their hands on it.

As I was going over
The far-famed Kerry Mountains
I met with Captain Ferrell and his money he was countin'
I first withdrew my pistol and then withdrew my rapier
I said "Stand and deliver for I am a bold deceiver"

Musha ringum-a duram-a da
Whack for daddy ol'
Whack for the daddy ol'
There's whiskey in the jar

I counted up his money, and it made a pretty penny
I put it in me pocket and I took it home to Jenny
She said and she swore that she never would deceive me
But the devil take the women, for you know they can't be easy

Musha ringum-a duram-a da
Whack for daddy ol'
Whack for the daddy ol'
There's whiskey in the jar

I went into my chamber, all for to take a slumber
And dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure it was no wonder
For Jenny stole my charges and she filled them full of water
And sent for Captain Ferrell to be ready for the slaughter

Musha ringum-a duram-a da
Whack for daddy ol'
Whack for the daddy ol'
There's whiskey in the jar

It was early in the morning, as I rose up for travel,
The guards were all around me, and likewise Captain Ferrell.
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 ringum-a duram-a da
Whack for daddy ol'
Whack for the daddy ol'
There's whiskey in the jar

If anyone can aid me, it's my brother in the army,
If I can find his station down in Cork or in Killarney.
And if he'll come and save me, we'll go roving near Kilkenny,
And I swear he'll treat me better than me darling sportling Jenny

Musha ringum-a duram-a da
Whack for daddy ol'
Whack for the daddy ol'
There's whiskey in the jar

Now some men take delight in the drinking and the roving,
But others take delight in the gambling and the smoking.
But I take delight in the juice of the barley,
And courting pretty fair maids in the morning bright and early

Musha ringum-a duram-a da
Whack for daddy ol'
Whack for the daddy ol'
There's whiskey in the jar

Musha ringum-a duram-a da
Whack for daddy ol'
Whack for the daddy ol'
There's whiskey in the jar!
