G Em
As I was going over the far famed Kerry mountains,
C G
I met with Captain Farrell and his money he was count'n.
G Em
I first produced me pistol, and I then produced me rapier,
C G
Saying stand and deliver for you are a bold deceiver.
D
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
G Em
I counted out his money and it made a pretty penny,
C G
I put it in me pocket and I took it home to Jenny.
G Em
She sighed and she swore that never would she leave me,
C G
But the devil take the women for they never can be easy.

G
Whack for my daddy-o
C
Whack for my daddy-o
G D G
There's whiskey in the jar
G Em
I went up to me 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 me charges and filled them up with water,
C G
Then sent for Captain Farrel, to be ready for the slaughter.

G Em
It was early in the morning just before I rose to travel,
C G
Up comes a band of footmen and likewise Captain Farrell;
G Em
I first produce my pistol, for she stole away me rapier
C G
But I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken.

G D G

G Em
If anyone can aid me, it 's my brother in the army,
C G
If I can find his station down in Cork or in Killarney.
G Em
And if he come and save me, we 'll go roving in Kilkenny,
C G
And I swear he 'll treat me better than me darling sporting Jenny

G Em
Now there's some take delight in the carriages a rolling,
C G
And others take delight in the hurling and the bowling
G Em
But I take delight in the juice of the barley,
C G
And courting pretty fair maids in the morning bright and early.
