[00:10.83] As I was going over the far famed Kerry Mountains
[00:15.57] I met with Captain Farrell and his money he was counting
[00:19.92] I first produced my pistol, and then produced my rapier
[00:24.25] Said stand and deliver, for I am a bold deceiver
[03:28.14]
[00:28.16] Musha ring dumma do damma da
[00:30.83] Whack for the daddy 'ol
[00:33.42] Whack for the daddy 'ol
[00:34.97] There's whiskey in the jar
[00:37.28]
[00:37.31] I counted out his money, and it made a pretty penny
[00:41.58] I put it in my pocket and I took it home to Johnny
[00:46.06] He said and he swore, that he never would deceive me
[00:50.35] But the devil take the men, for they never can be easy
[00:54.28]
[00:54.37] Musha ring dumma do damma da
[00:56.82] Whack for the daddy 'ol
[00:59.55] Whack for the daddy 'ol
[01:01.17] There's whiskey in the jar
[01:05.15]
[01:20.73] I went into my chamber, all for to take a slumber
[01:25.21] I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure it was no wonder
[01:29.65] But Johnny took my charges and he filled them up with water
[01:34.01] Then sent for captain Farrel to be ready for the slaughter
[01:38.05]
[01:38.07] Musha ring dumma do damma da
[01:41.01] Whack for the daddy 'ol
[01:43.10] Whack for the daddy 'ol
[01:44.72] There's whiskey in the jar
[01:47.05]
[01:47.09] It was early in the morning, as I rose up for travel
[01:51.42] The guards were all around me and likewise captain Farrel
[01:55.82] I first produced my pistol, for he stole away my rapier
[02:00.19] But I couldn't shoot the water so a prisoner I was taken
[02:04.18]
[02:04.20] Musha ring dumma do damma da
[02:07.13] Whack for the daddy 'ol
[02:09.22] Whack for the daddy 'ol
[02:11.01] There's whiskey in the jar
[02:15.27]
[02:30.61] If anyone can aid me, it's my brother in the army
[02:35.05] If I can find his station down in Cork or in Killarney
[02:39.56] And if he'll come and save me, we'll go roving near Kilkenny
[02:43.59] And I swear he'll treat me better than me darling sportling Johnny
[02:47.58]
[02:47.64] Musha ring dumma do damma da
[02:50.89] Whack for the daddy 'ol
[02:52.80] Whack for the daddy 'ol
[02:54.62] There's whiskey in the jar
[02:56.95]
[02:56.96] Now some men take delight in the drinking and the roving
[03:01.23] But others take delight in the gambling and the smoking
[03:05.73] But I take delight in the juice of the barley
[03:09.96] And courting handsome lovers in the morning bright and early
[03:13.89]
[03:14.00] Musha ring dumma do damma da
[03:16.98] Whack for the daddy 'ol
[03:19.05] Whack for the daddy 'ol
[03:21.47] Whack for the daddy 'ol
[03:23.01] There's whiskey in the jar.
