Whiskey You're The Devil Lyrics - Town Pants

Oh, whisky you're the devil 

you're leading me astray 

over hills and mountains 

and to Amerikay 

you're sweeter stronger dacenter 

you're spunkier nor tea 

oh whisky you're my darling drunk or sober 

Now brave boys we're off for marching 

off to Portugal and Spain 

Drums are beating, banners flying 

the Devil a home will come tonight 

Love, fare thee well 

With me tiiddery idle loodle lum a da 

Me tiiddery idle loodle lum a da 

Me right for tooral addee o 

there's whisky in the jar 

The French are fighting boldly 

men are dying hot and coldly 

give every man his flask of powder 

his firelock on his shoulder 

Love, fare thee well 

With me tiiddery idle loodle lum a da 

Me tiiddery idle loodle lum a da 

Me right for tooral addee o 

there's whisky in the jar 

Says the mother do not wrong me 

don't take me daughter from me 

for if you do I will torment you 

and after death my ghost will haunt you 

Love, fare thee well 

With me tiiddery idle loodle lum a da 

Me tiiddery idle loodle lum a da 

Me right for tooral addee o 

there's whisky in the jar
