Whiskey in the Jar (Club Front Rehearsal, February 16, 1993)

[Chorus]
Musha ringum duram da
Whack fol de daddy-o
Whack fol de daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

[Verse 1]
Some take delight in the carriage a-rollin'
Others take delight in fishing and bowling
I take delight in the fruit of the barley
Courting pretty women in the morning so early

[Chorus]
Musha ringum duram da
Whack fol de daddy-o
Whack fol de daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

[Interlude]
(What is the name of that?)
"Whiskey in the Jar" it's called
("Whiskey in the Jar")
That's the song that has "I am a bold deceiver" in it
(I remembеr doing that song very, years and years ago)
Yеah, right
(Yeah, I haven't heard that one in thirty years)
Yeah, right, I haven't either, I just remembered it
(The whole song, where's it all?)
Well
(Musha ringum duran da, whack for de jar, whack fol, whack fol de)
Whack fol de daddy-o
(Whack fol de daddy-o, daddy-o)
Right, it's got great lyrics, it's a cool song
(Wild wonderful stuff)
Yeah, it's a cool song
(I guess that's Irish)
I hope so (Yeah)

[Verse 2]
As I was walkin' down the mountain
Met Colonel Pepper and his money he was counting
Fired off my pistols and I rattled my sabre
Saying, "Stand and deliver, for I am a bold deceiver"

[Chorus]
Musha ringum duram da
Whack fol de daddy-o
Whack fol de daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

[Verse 3]
The shiny golden coins sure look bright and jolly
Took the money home and I gave it to my Molly
She promised and she vowed that she never would deceive me
But the devil's in the women and they never can be easy

[Chorus]
Musha ringum duram da
Whack fol de daddy-o
Whack fol de daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
I was awaken between the hours of six and seven
Guards stood 'round my bed in numbers odd and even
I didn't have my pistols, so they...
Da-da-da-da-d, da-da-da-da-da-da-da

[Chorus]
Musha ringum duram da
Whack fol de daddy-o
Whack fol de daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

[Interlude]
Step down low
C, C

[Verse 5]
They put me in jail without a judge or jury
For robbing Colonel Pepper in the morning so early
They didn't take my fist so I knocked down the sentry
Bid a long farewell to that cold penitentiary

[Chorus]
Musha ringum duram da
Whack fol de daddy-o
Whack fol de daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

[Verse 6]
Some take delight in fishing and bowling
Others take delight in the carriage a-rollin'
I take delight in the juice of the barley
Courting pretty women in the morning so early

[Chorus]
Musha ringum duram da
Whack fol de daddy-o
Whack fol de daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

[Verse 7]
As I was a-ridin' over Gilgarra mountains
I met Colonel Pepper and his money he was counting
Shot off my pistols and I rattled my sabre
Saying "Stand and deliver, for I am a bold deceiver"

[Chorus]
Musha ringum duram da
Whack fol de daddy-o
Whack fol de daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

[Outro]
Nice (Yeah)
A folk song, cool one, though
