4Ever Erin playing "Whiskey In The Jar" at Loockerman's Exchange in Dover, Delaware after The St. Patrick's Day Parade, March, 2011.

"As I was going over Kilgory Mountain I met Colonel Farrell, and his money he was
counting I first produced my pistols and then I drew my rapier, I said, "Stand and deliver!, I am your bold deceiver."
Musha reem abba do abba dai,: Whack fol the daddy-o, Whack fol the daddy-o 
There's whiskey in the jar.

He counted out his money and it made a pretty penny;
I put it in my pocket to take home to darlin' Jenny.
She swore that she loved me and never would deceive me,
But the devil take the women, they never can lie easy!
Musha reem abba do abba dai,: Whack fol the daddy-o, Whack fol the daddy-o There's whiskey in the jar.

He went into me chamber for to take a slumber,
To dream of gold and girls, and of course it was no wonder:
But I took his charges and filled them up with water,
I called on Colonel Farrell to get ready for the slaughter.
Musha reem abba do abba dai,: Whack fol the daddy-o, Whack fol the daddy-o There's whiskey in the jar.

Next mornin' early, before he rose for travel,
Came a band of horsemen and likewise Colonel Farrell.
He first produced his pistols, cause I stole away my rapier,
He couldn't shoot the water so a prisoner he was taken
Musha reem abba do abba dai,: Whack fol the daddy-o, Whack fol the daddy-o There's whiskey in the jar.

If anyone could aid me it's my brother army;
If I could find his station, in Cork or in Killarney.
And if he'll come and join me we'll go rolling in Kilkenny,
And I know he'd treat me better than sportin' little Jenny!
Musha reem abba do abba dai,: Whack fol the daddy-o, Whack fol the daddy-o There's whiskey in the jar.

Some take delight in the fishing and the bowling
Others take delight in fine carriages a-rollin',
We take delight in the fruit of the barley,
And to be a-courting in the morning bright and early
Musha reem abba do abba dai,: Whack fol the daddy-o, Whack fol the daddy-o There's whiskey in the jar.
Musha reem abba do abba dai,: Whack fol the daddy-o, Whack fol the daddy-o There's whiskey in the jar."
