Now brave boys, we're on the march
Off to Portugal and Spain
Drums are beating, banners waving
The devil a-home will come tonight
Go, fare thee well
With a too-da loo-ra, loo-ra-doo-de-da
Me right fol tur-a-ladee-oh
There's whiskey in the jar (hey!)
Whiskey you're the devil, you're leading me astray
Over hills and mountains and to Amerikay
Your sweetness from the bleachner, you're spunkier than tea
Ah, whiskey you're me darlin', drunk or sober
The French are fighting boldly
Men are dying hot and coldly
Give every man his flask of powder
His firelock on his shoulder
Now fare thee well
With a too-da loo-ra, loo-ra-doo-de-da
Me right fol tur-a-ladee-oh
There's whiskey in the jar (hey!)
Whiskey you're the devil, you're leading me astray
Over hills and mountains and to Amerikay
Your sweetness from the bleachner, you're spunkier than tea
Ah, whiskey you're me darlin', drunk or sober

Whiskey you're the devil, you're leading me astray
Over hills and mountains and to Amerikay
Your sweetness from the bleachner, you're spunkier than tea
Ah, whiskey you're me darlin', drunk or sober
Says the mother, "Do not wrong me
Don't take me daughter from me
For if you do, I will torment you
And after death, me ghost will haunt you"
Go, fare thee well
With a too-da loo-ra, loo-ra-doo-de-da
Me right fol tur-a-ladee-oh
There's whiskey in the jar (hey!)
Whiskey you're the devil, you're leading me astray
Over hills and mountains and to Amerikay
Your sweetness from the bleachner, you're spunkier than tea
Ah, whiskey you're me darlin', drunk or sober
