Текст песни: Whisky In The Jar + перевод

As I was going over the Cork and Kerry mountains

I met with Captain Farrell and his money he was countin'

I first produced me pistol and then I drew me rapier

Saying, «Stand and deliver, for You are bold deceiver»

With your ring dum-a-do-dum-a-da

Whack for the daddy-o

Whack for the daddy-o

There’s whiskey in the jar

I counted out his money and it made a pretty penny

I put it in my pocket and I took it home to Jenny

She sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me

But the devil take the women, for they never can be easy

With your ring dum-a-do-dum-a-da

Whack for the daddy-o

Whack for the daddy-o

There’s whiskey in the jar

I went into me chamber, all for to take a slumber

I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure it was no wonder

But Jenny drew me charges and she filled them up with water

And sent for Captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter

With your ring dum-a-do-dum-a-da

Whack for the daddy-o

Whack for the daddy-o

There’s whiskey in the jar

If there’s anyone can aid me, it’s me brothers in the army

If I can find their station in Cork or in Killarney

And if they go with me, we’ll go roving in Kilkenny

I’m sure he treats me fairer than me only, sportin' Jenny

With your ring dum-a-do-dum-a-da

Whack for the daddy-o

Whack for the daddy-o

There’s whiskey in the jar

With your ring dum-a-do-dum-a-da

Whack for the daddy-o

Whack for the daddy-o

There’s whiskey in the jar
