[D] As I was going over the [Bm] far-famed Kerry Mountains, [G] I met with Captain Farrell and [D] his money he was counting.
I first produced my pistol and [Bm] I then produced my rapier.
[G] Say, stand and deliver [D] for you are a bold deceiver, musher.
[A] Quack, fall, and addio, [G]
quack, fall, and [D] addio, there's whiskey in the jar.
I counted out his money [Bm] and it made a pretty penny.
I [G] put it in my pocket [D] and I took it home to G.A.
She sighed and she swore [Bm] that she never would deceive [G] me.
But the devil take the women [D] for they never can be easy, musher.

[D] Quack, fall, and addio, [G]
quack, fall, and [D] addio, there's whiskey in the jar.
I went up to my chamber [Bm] all for to take a slumber.
[G] I dreamt of golden jewels [D] and for sure it was no wonder.
But Jenny drew me charges [Bm] and she filled them up with water.
[G] Then sent for Captain Farrell to [D] be ready for the slaughter, musher.
Ling-a-ba-ling-a-ba-da.
Quack, fall, and addio, [G]
quack, fall, and addio, [D] there's whiskey in the jar.
And it was early in the morning just [Bm] before I rose to travel.
[G] Up comes a man, the footman, and [D] likewise Captain Farrell.
I first produced me pistol for she'd [Bm] stolen away me rapier.
I [G] couldn't shoot the water so a [D] prisoner I was taken, [A] musher.
Ling-a-ba-ling-a-ba-da.
Quack, fall, and addio, [G] quack, fall, and addio, [D] there's whiskey in the jar.
And if anyone can aid me, [Bm] it is my brother in the army.
[G] If I can find his station [D] in Cork or in Killarney.
And if he'll go with me, we'll go roaming in Kilkenny.
And I'm [G] sure he'll treat me better than my [D] own musk-horting Jenny.
