| As i was going over the Kork and Kerry mountains |
|
|
I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was counting |
|
|
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier |
|
|
I said „Stand and deliver or the devil he may take you“ |
|
|
|
I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny |
|
|
I took all of his money and I brought it home to Molly |
|
|
She swore that she’d love me, no never would she leave me |
|
|
But the devil take that woman for you know she treat me easy |
|
|
| |
Mush a ring dum a doo dum a da - Whack for my daddy’o |
|
| |
Whack for my daddy’o, there’s Whisky in the jar, o |
|
|
|
Being drunk and weary I went to Molly’s chamber |
|
|
Taking my Molly with me and i never knew the danger |
|
|
For about six or maybe seven in walked Captain Farrell |
|
|
I jumped up, fired off my pistols and i shot him with both barrels |
|
|
| |
Mush a ring dum a doo dum a da - Whack for my daddy’o |
|
| |
Whack for my daddy’o, there’s Whisky in the jar, o |
|
|
|
Now some men like the fishing and some men like fowling |
|
|
And some men like to hear the cannonballs are roaring |
|
|
Me, I like sleeping, specially in my Molly’s chamber |
|
|
But here i am in prison, here i am with a ball and chain, yeah |
|
