As I was goin' over, the Cork and Kerry mountains
C G
I saw Captain Farrell, and his money he was countin'
G Em
I first produced my pistol, and then produced my rapier
C G
I said __ stand and deliver, or the devil he may take ya
D
Musha ring dum a do dum a dah
C
__ Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
G
There's whiskey in the jar-o
G Em
I took all of his money, and it was a pretty penny
C G
I took all of his money, and I brought it home to Molly
G Em
She swore that she loved me, never would she leave me
C G
__ But the devil take that woman, for you know she tricked me easy
D
Musha ring dum a do dum a dah
C
__ Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o

G Em
Being drunk and weary, I went to Molly's chamber
C G
__ Takin' my money with me, and I never knew the danger
G Em
For about six or maybe seven, in walked Captain Farrell
C G
__ I jumped up, fired off my pistols, and I shot him with both barrels
D
Musha ring dum a do dum a dah

__ Whack for my daddy-o

G Em
Now some men like the fishin', and some men like the fowlin'
C G
__ And some men like ta hear, ta hear a cannon ball a roarin'
G Em
But me I like sleepin', specially in my Molly's chamber
C G
__ But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain yeah

Musha ring dum a do dum a dah
