Whiskey in the Jar Songtext

von Noel McLoughlin

As I was going over the car can carry mountains
I met with captain Farrow and his money he was countem
I first produse my pistol and them produse my rapior
Say stand and deliver for you are a bold reciver
Masha rim damma-do damma-da
What for my daddy-o
What for my daddy-o
Ther's whiskey in the jar
I conted up his money
And it made a pretty peny
I put it in my pocket and a brothed home to jenny
He sinded and she sore
That she never would decive me
But the devil take the women for they never hand me easy
Masha rim damma-do damma-da
What for the daddy-o
What for the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar
Wen i went into my chamber
Went far to take a slumber
I dremed with golden jweles
And for shure it was a wonder
For jenny drue me charges and she fell among the wather
And send to captain farrow to be ready for the slaugther
Masha rim damma-do damma-da
What for the daddy-o
Wath for the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar
Was early the next mourning just before i rush to travel
I was band the foot and the ligth was captain farrow
I just produce my pistol
For she stole away me rapior
But i couldnt shoot the waggon so a prisoner i was takem
