Lyrics Whiskey in the Jar - The Highwaymen
As
I
was
going
over
the
far
famed
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
I
am
a
bold
deceiver,
Musha
ring
dumma
do
damma
da
Whack
for
the
daddy
'ol
Whack
for
the
daddy
'ol
There's
whiskey
in
the
jar
I
counted
out
his
money,
and
it
made
a
pretty
penny.
I
put
it
in
my
pocket
and
I
send
it
home
to
Jenny.
She
said
and
she
swore,
that
she
never
would
deceive
me,
But
the
devil
take
the
women,
for
they
never
can
be
easy
Musha
ring
dumma
do
damma
da
Whack
for
the
daddy
'ol
Whack
for
the
daddy
'ol
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
Jenny
took
my
charges
and
she
filled
them
up
with
water,
Then
sent
for
captain
Farrel
to
be
ready
for
the
slaughter.
Musha
ring
dumma
do
damma
da
Whack
for
the
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
Farrel.
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
dumma
do
damma
da
Whack
for
the
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
ring
dumma
do
damma
da
Whack
for
the
daddy
'ol
Whack
for
the
daddy
'ol
There's
whiskey
in
the
jar
Musha
ring
dumma
do

da
Whack

the
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
