Song lyrics
As I was going over the Cork and Kerry mountains 
I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was counting 
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier 
I said "stand and deliver or the devil he may take you" 

I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny 
I took all of his money, yeah, and I brought it home to Molly 
She swore that she loved me, no, never would she leave me 
But the devil take that woman, yeah, for you know she tricked me 
easy 

Musha rain dum-a-do-dum-a-da 
Whack for my daddy-o 
Whack for my daddy-o 
There's whiskey in the jar-o 

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

Musha rain dum-a-do-dum-a-da, yeah-yeah-yeah 
Whack for my daddy-o 
Whack for my daddy-o 
There's whiskey in the jar-o 

Now some men like the fishing and some men like the fowling 
And some men like to hear, to hear the cannonball all roaring 
Me I like sleeping, especially in my Molly's chamber 
But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain, yeah 

Musha rain dum-a-do-dum-a-da, yeah 
Whack for my daddy-o 
Whack for my daddy-o 
There's whiskey in the jar-o, yeah 

Whiskey in the jar-o, yeah 

Musha rain dum-a-do-dum-a-da 
Musha rain dum-a-do-dum-a-da, hey 
Musha rain dum-a-do-dum-a-da 
Musha rain dum-a-do-dum-a-da, yeah

everyone credits Thin Lizzy, but its actually an old Irish drinking song, with its roots in the Renaissance
