                     LYRICS

As I was goin' over the Cork and Kerry mountains
I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was countin'
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier
I said stand-o and deliver or the devil he may take ya


chorus: Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
        Whack for my daddy-o
        Whack for my daddy-o
        There's whiskey in the jar-o

I took all of his money, and it was a pretty penny
I took all of his money and I brought it home to Molly
She swore that she'd love me, never would she leave me
But the devil take that woman for you know she tricked me easy

chorus:

Being drunk and weary I went to Molly's chamber
Takin' my money with me and I never knew the danger
For about six or maybe seven in walked Captain Farrell
I jumped up, fired off my pistols and I shot him with both barrels

chorus:

Now some men like the fishin' and some men like the fowlin'
And some men like ta hear a cannon ball a-roarin'
Me I like sleepin' specially in my Molly's chamber
But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain, yeah
