As ^CI was going over the ^Amfar famed Kerry mountains, I ^Fmet with Captain Farrell and his ^Cmoney he was count'n. I first produced me pistol, and ^Amthen produced me rapier, Saying ^Fstand and deliver for you ^Care the bold deceiver. CHORUS: Musha ^Grig um du rum da ^CWhack fol the daddy o ^FWhack fol the daddy o There's ^Cwhiskey ^Gin the ^Cjar I ^Ccounted out his money and it ^Ammade a pretty penny, I ^Fput it in me pocket and I ^Ctook it home to Jenny. She sighed and she swore that she ^Amnever would deceave me, But the ^Fdevil take the women for they ^Cnever can be easy. CH:... I ^Cwent up to me chamber all ^Amfor to take a slumber I ^Fdreamt of gold and jewels and ^Csure it was no wonder, But Jenny drew me charges and ^Amshe filled them up with water, And ^Fsent for Captain Farrel, to be ^Cready for the slaughter. CH:... 'Twas ^Cearly in the morning be^Amfore I rose to travel, Up ^Fcomes a band of footmen and ^Clikewise Captain Farrell; I first produce my pistol, for she ^Amstole away my rapier But I ^Fcouldn't shoot the water, so a ^Cprisoner I was taken. CH:... And ^Cif anyone can aid me, 'tis my ^Ambrother in the army, If ^FI could learn his station in ^CCork or in Killarney. And if he'd come and join me we'd go ^Amroving through Kilkenny, I'm ^Fsure he'd treat me fairer than ^Cmy own sporting Jenny. CH:... There's ^Csome takes delight in the ^Amcarriages a rolling, Some ^Ftakes delight in the ^Churley or the bowlin'. But I takes delight in the ^Amjuice of the barley, And ^Fcourting pretty fair maids in the ^Cmorning bright and early. CH:...
