As I was going over the far farmed Kerry mountains.
I met with Captain Farrell and his money he was counting.
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier.
Saying, "Stand and deliver for you are the bold deceiver."
Musha ringum duram da. (MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW)
Whack fol the daddy-o. (MEOW MEOW)
Whack fol the daddy-o.
There's whiskey in the jar.
I counted out his money and it made a pretty penny.
I put it in my pocket and I gave it all to Jenny.
She smiled and she swore that she never would deceive me.
But the devil take the women cause they never can be easy.
Musha ringum duram da. (MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW)
Whack fol the daddy-o. (MEOW MEOW)
Whack fol the daddy-o.
There's whiskey in the jar.
I went into my chamber all for to take a slumber.
To dream of gold and jewels but for sure it was no wonder.
Jenny drew my charges and filled them up with water.
Then sent for Captain Farrell to get ready for the slaughter.
Musha ringum duram da. (MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW)
Whack fol the daddy-o. (MEOW MEOW)
Whack fol the daddy-o.
There's whiskey in the jar.
It was early in the morning just before I rose to travel.
In came a band of footmen and likewise Rasher Farrell.
I first produced my pistol since she took away my rapier.
I couldn't shoot the water so a prisoner I was taken.
Musha ringum duram da. (MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW)
Whack fol the daddy-o. (MEOW MEOW)
Whack fol the daddy-o.
There's whiskey in the jar.
Now, if anyone can help me it's my brother in the army.
I think that he's stationed in Cork or in Killarney.
But when we go outside, we'll go roving in Kilkenny.
I'm sure he'll treat me better than my only sporting Jenny.
Musha ringum duram da. (MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW)
Whack fol the daddy-o. (MEOW MEOW)
Whack fol the daddy-o.
There's whiskey in the jar.
Now there's some who take delight in the carriages a rolling.
And others take delight in the hurling and the bowling.
I take delight in the juice of the barley.
And courting pretty ladies in the morning bright and early.
Musha ringum duram da. (MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW)
Whack fol the daddy-o. (MEOW MEOW)
Whack fol the daddy-o.
There's whiskey in the jar.
