Lyrics for Whiskey In The Jar by Unknown:

I met with Captain Farrel and the money he was
counting
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier
Saying stand and deliver
for I am a bold deceiver
I counted out the money and it made a pretty penny
I put it
in my pocket and I took it home to Jenny
She sighed and she swore that she never would deceive
me
But the devil take some women for they never can be easy
I went up to my chamber
for to take a slumber
I dreamed of gold and jewels and for sure it was no wonder
For
Jenny's took my pistols and she's filled them up with water
And she's called for Captain Farrel
to be ready for the slaughter
Twas early the next morning before I rose to travel
Up
came a gang of footmen and likewise Captain Farrel
I first produced my pistol for she'd stolen
away my rapier
But I couldn't shoot the water so a prisoner I was taken
Well if
anyone can save me it's my brother in the army
But I don't know where he's stationed is it
Dublin or Kilarny
If he'd come and join me we'd go roving in Kilkenny
I'm sure he'd treat
me fairer than my darling sportinf Jenny | | | |
