As I was going over the Cork and Kerry mountain I met with captain Farrell and his money he was counting I first produced my pistol then produced my rapier tand and deliver for I am a bold deceiver
Whack fol de daddy o, whack fol de daddy o There's whiskey in the jar
He counted out his money and it made a pretty penny I put it in my pocket and I gave it up to Jenny She sighed and she swore she never would betray me But the devil take that woman for she never could lie easy
Whack fol de daddy o, whack fol de daddy o There's whiskey in the jar Whack fol de daddy o, whack fol de daddy o There's whiskey in the jar
I went up to my chamber all for to take a slumber I dreamt of darling Jenny and sure it was no wonder But Jenny blew me charges and she filled them up with water Then sent for captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter
Whack fol de daddy o, whack fol de daddy o There's whiskey in the jar Whack fol de daddy o, whack fol de daddy o There's whiskey in the jar
And 't was early in the morning, just before I rose to travel Up comes a band of footmen and likewise captain Farrell I first produced me pistol for she stole away me rapier I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken
Whack fol de daddy o, whack fol de daddy o There's whiskey in the jar Whack fol de daddy o, whack fol de daddy o There's whiskey in the jar
If ever you go hunting in the morning bright and early Down through the hills of Dublin or the mountains of Tipperary [I've been thinking of the night Jenny fixed me slaughter How she kept me distance and she filled them up with water (?)]*
Whack fol de daddy o, whack fol de daddy o There's whiskey in the jar Whack fol de daddy o, whack fol de daddy o There's whiskey in the jar
Whack fol de daddy o, whack fol de daddy o There's whiskey in the jar Whack fol de daddy o, whack fol de daddy o There's whiskey in the jar
