THIN LIZZY * WHISKEY IN THE JAR
===================================


1. As I was a-walking 'round Kilgary Mointain,
I met Colonel Pepper and his money, he was counting.
I rattled my pistols, and I drew forth me saber,
Saying, "stand and deliver, for I'm the bold deceiver."
/G
Ref.: Mush-a-ring-dum-a-doo-dum-a-dah,
Whack fol the daddy-o,
Whack fol the daddy-o,
There's whiskey in the jar.

2. The shining golden coins did look so bright and jolly.
I took 'em with me home, and I gave 'em to my Molly.
She promised and she vowed that she never would deceive me,
But the devil's in the women, and they never can be easy.

Ref.: Mush-a-ring-dum-a-doo-dum-a-dah
Whack fol the daddy-o,
Whack fol the daddy-o,
There's whiskey in the jar.

3. When I was awakened between six and seven,
The guards were all around me, in numbers odd and even.
I flew my pistols, but alas I was mistaken,
For Molly'd drawn my pistols, and a prisoner, I was taken.


Ref.: Mush-a-ring-dum-a-doo-dum-a-dah
Whack fol the daddy-o,
Whack fol the daddy-o,
There's whiskey in the jar.

4. They put me in jail without judge or writing,
For robbing Colonel Pepper on Kilgary Mountain.
But they didn't take my fists, so I knocked the sentry down,
And bind a fond farewell to the jail of Slaigo town.


Ref.: Mush-a-ring-dum-a-doo-dum-a-dah
Whack fol the daddy-o,
Whack fol the daddy-o,
There's whiskey in the jar.

5. Now, some take delight in fishing and bowling,
And others take delight in the carriages a-rolling.
But I take delight in the juice of the barely,
And courting pretty girls in the morning so early.


Ref.: Mush-a-ring-dum-a-doo-dum-a-dah ... (2x)
