Текст песни Whiskey In the Jar - The Pogues

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 me pistol and I then produced me rapier

Saying stand and deliver for I am the bold deceiver

Musha-ring dumma-do-damma-da

Whack for the daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

I counted out his money, it made a pretty penny

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

She sighed and she swore, she never would deceive me

But the devil take my women for they never can be easy

Musha-ring dumma-do-damma-da

Whack for the daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

I went unto 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

And sent for captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter

Musha-ring dumma-do-damma-da

Whack for the daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

It was early in the morning before I rose to travel

Up comes a band of footmen and likewise captain Farrell

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-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 save me, we'll go roving near Kilkenny

And I'm sure he'll treat me better than me own sporting Jenny

Musha-ring dumma-do-damma-da

Whack for the daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

There's some takes delight in the carriages a-rolling

And others take delight in the hurley and the bowlin'

But I takes delight in the juice of the barley

And courting pretty fair maids in the morning bright and early

Musha-ring dumma-do-damma-da

Whack for the daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

Musha-ring dumma-do-damma-da

Whack for the daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar
