As I was going over the far
I met with Captain Farrell
and his mummy, he was counting.
I first produced me pistol,
and then produced me rapier,
since then I'm the whipper for you,
There's whiskey in the jar
and it made a pretty penny
and I took it home to Jenny
that she never would deceive me
But the devil take the women
for they never can be easy
Musher in, over there, over now
There's whisky in the jar
all for to take a slumber
I dreamt of golden jewels,
and for sure it was no wonder
For Jenny drew me charges,
and she filled them up with water
And sent for Captain Farrell
to be ready for the slaughter
There's whiskey in the jar
T 'was early in the mornin'
Up came a band of footmen
And likewise Captain Farrell
For she stole the lady rapier
But I couldn't shoot the water
So the prisoner I was takin'
And musher bin, -a -doo, rum -a -da
There's whiskey in the jar
There's some that take delight
in the fishin' and the bowlin'
in their carriages fast and rollin'
But I'll take delight in the
Or Courtney when he went on
the mountains of Killarney
There's whiskey in the jar
The musher bing -a -dee -doo -da -da
There's whiskey in the jar
