kilgaragh mountain - 97th regimental string band lyrics

as i was a*walkin’ ’round kilgaragh mountain
i spied colonel pepper as his money he was countin’
i drew fourth my pistols and i rattled me’ sabers
sayin’, “stand and deliver, for i am the born deceiver.”!

” [chrous]

(musha rig um du rum da
whack fol the daddy o
whack fol the daddy o
there’s whiskey in the jar)
the shinin’ golden coins did look so bright and jolly
i took ’em with me home and i gave ’em to me molly
she vowed and she promised that she never would deceive me
but the devil’s in the women and they never can be easy

” [chrous]

(musha rig um du rum da
whack fol the daddy o
whack fol the daddy o
there’s whiskey in the jar)

as i was awakened between six and seven
the guards were all around me in numbers odd and even
i flew to my pistols, but alas i was mistaken
for molly’s drawn my pistols and a prisoner i was taken
[chrous]
(musha rig um du rum da
whack fol the daddy o
whack fol the daddy o
there’s whiskey in the jar)
they put me into jail without judge or writin’
for robbing colonel pepper upon kilgaragh mountain
but they didn’t take my fists so i knocked the sentry down
and bid a fond farewell to the jail in sligo town
” [chorus]

(musha rig um du rum da
whack fol the daddy o
whack fol the daddy o
there’s whiskey in the jar)

now, some take delight in fishin’ and in bowlin’
and others take delight in carriages a*rollin’
but i take delight in the juice of the barley
and courtin’ pretty girls in the morning so early
” [chorus]

(musha rig um du rum da
whack fol the daddy o
whack fol the daddy o
there’s whiskey in the jar)
