AS I WAS GOING OVER
THE FAR FAMED
KERRY MOUNTAINS
I MET WITH CAPTAIN FARRELL
AND HIS MONEY
HE WAS COUNTING
I FIRST PRODUCED MY PISTOL
AND I THEN
PRODUCED MY RAPIER
SAYIN' STAND AND DELIVER
FOR HE WERE A BOLD DECEIVER
MUSH-A RING
DUM-A DO, DUM-A DA
WACK FALL THE DADDY-O
WACK FALL THE DADDY-O
THERE'S WHISKEY IN THE JAR
I COUNTED OUT HIS MONEY
AND IT MADE A PRETTY PENNY
I PUT IT IN ME POCKET
AND I TOOK IT HOME TO JENNY
SHE SIGHED AND SHE SWORE
THAT SHE NEVER
WOULD DECEIVE ME
BUT THE DEVIL TAKE THE WOMEN
FOR THEY NEVER CAN BE EASY
MUSH-A RING
DUM-A DO, DUM-A DA
WACK FALL THE DADDY-O
WACK FALL THE DADDY-O
THERE'S WHISKEY IN THE JAR
I WENT UP TO MY CHAMBER
ALL FOR TO TAKE A SLUMBER
I DREAMT OF GOLD AND JEWELS
AND FOR 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
MUSH-A RING
DUM-A DO, DUM-A DA
WACK FALL THE DADDY-O
WACK FALL THE DADDY-O
THERE'S WHISKEY IN THE JAR
AND 'TWAS 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'D STOLE
AWAY ME RAPIER
I COULDN'T SHOOT THE WATER
SO, A PRISONER I WAS TAKEN
MUSH-A RING
DUM-A DO, DUM-A DA
WACK FALL THE DADDY-O
WACK FALL THE DADDY-O
THERE'S WHISKEY IN THE JAR
AND IF ANYONE CAN AID ME
'TIS MY BROTHER IN THE ARMY
IF I CAN FIND HIS STATION
IN CORK OR IN KILLARNEY
AND IF HE'LL GO WITH ME
WE'LL GO ROVIN' IN KILLKENNY
AND I'M SURE HE'LL
TREAT ME BETTER THAN
MY OWN A-SPORTING JENNY
MUSH-A RING
DUM-A DO, DUM-A DA
WACK FALL THE DADDY-O
WACK FALL THE DADDY-O
THERE'S WHISKEY IN THE JAR
MUSH-A RING
DUM-A DO, DUM-A DA
WACK FALL THE DADDY-O
WACK FALL THE DADDY-O
THERE'S WHISKEY IN THE JAR
WOAH!
