Whiskey in the Jar

G Em As I was goin' over the Cork and Kerry mountains, C G I met with Captain Farrell and his money he was countin'. G Em I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier, C G Sayin' stand and deliver, for you are a bold deceiver. Chorus: C Musha ring dum a doo dum a da, G Whack for my daddy-o, C Whack for my daddy-o, G D G There's whiskey in the jar-o. G Em I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny, C G I put it in my pocket and I took it home to Jenny. G Em She sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me, C G But the devil take the women, for they never can be easy. G Em I went into my chamber all for to take a slumber, C G I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure it was no wonder. G Em But Jenny drew my charges and she filled them up with water, C G And sent for Captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter.
