Whiskey In The Jar Lyrics - Nolwenn - Nolwenn Leroy

As I was a goin' over the far famed Kerry mountains 

I met with captain Farrell and his money he was counting 

I first produced my pistol and I then produced my rapier 

Said "Stand and deliver" for i am a bold deceiver 

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da 

Whack for my daddy-o. Whack for my daddy-o 

There's whiskey in the jars: 

I counted out his money and it made a pretty penny 

I put it in my pocket and I took it home to Johnny 

He said and he swore that he never would deceive me 

But the devil take the men for they never can be easy 

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da 

Whack for my daddy-o. Whack for my daddy-o 

There's whiskey in the jar

I went into my chamber, all for to take a slumber 

I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure it was no wonder 

But Johnny took my charges 

and he filled them up with water 

Then sent for captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter 

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da 

Whack for my daddy-o. Whack for my daddy-o 

There's whiskey in the jar 

It was early in the morning, just before I rose for travel 

The guards were all around me and likewise captain Farrell 

I first produced my pistol for he stole away my rapier 

But I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken 

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da 

Whack for my daddy-o. Whack for my daddy-o 

There's whiskey in the jar

If anyone can aid me it's my brother in the army 

If I can find his station in Cork or in Killarney 

And if he'll come and save me, we'll go rovin' near Killkenny 

And i swear he'll treat me better than 

me darling sportling Johnny 

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da 

Whack for my daddy-o. Whack for my daddy-o 

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 handsome lovers 

in the morning bright and early 

Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da 

Whack for my daddy-o. Whack for my daddy-o 

There's whiskey in the jar
