As I was goin' over
To Cork and Kerry Mountains
I saw Captain Farrell
And his money he was countin'
I first produced my pistols
And then produced my rapier
I said, "Stand over and deliver or the devil he may take ya"
Musha rain dum a doo, dum a da
Whack for my daddy, oh
Whack for my daddy, oh
There's whiskey in the jar, oh
ย
Well, I took all of his money
And it was a pretty penny
I took all of his money
Yeah, and I brought it home to Molly
She swore that she loved me
Never would she leave me
But the devil take that woman
For you know she tricked me easy
Musha rain dum a doo, dum a da
Whack for my daddy, oh
Whack for my daddy, oh
There's whiskey in the jar, oh
ย
Being drunk and weary
I went to Molly's chamber
Takin' my money with me
And I never knew the danger
For about six or maybe seven
In walked Captain Farrell
I jumped up, fired my pistols
And I shot him with both barrels
Musha rain dum a doo, dum a da
Whack for my daddy, oh
Whack for my daddy, oh
There's whiskey in the jar, oh
