As I was a goin' over the Cork and Kerry mountains
I met with captain Farrell and his money he was counting
I first produced my pistol and I then produced my saber
"Stand and deliver" for he were my only savior

With you're ring dum-a do dum-a da
Hoy hoy hoy
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

I counted out my money and it made a pretty penny
I put it in me pocket and I took it home to Jenny
She sighed and she scorn for she never would believe me
But the devil take the women for you know they can be easy

With you're ring dum-a do dum-a da
