[G] [C]
As I was going over [Am] the far-famed Kerry mountains, I [F] met with Captain Farrell [C] and his money he was counting.
I first produced me pistol and [Am] I then produced me rapier.
[F] He said, stand and deliver [C] for you are a bowl to see my musher [G] in the Luganda.
Whack all the daddy [F]-o, whack all the daddy [C]-o, there's whiskey in Luganda.
I counted out his money and [Am] it made him pretty penny.
I [F] put it in me pocket [C] and I took it home to Jenny.
She sighed and she swore that [Am] she never would deceive me.
[F] But the devil take the women [C] for they never can be easy [G] musher in the Luganda.
[C] Whack all the daddy [F]-o, whack all the daddy [Em]-o, there's whiskey [C] in the jar.
I went on to my chamber [Am] all for to take a [F] snubber.

It was early in the morning [Am] just before I rose to travel.

I first produced me pistol [Am] for she'd stolen away me rapier.
[F] But I couldn't shoot the water [C] so a prisoner I was taken [G] musher in the Luganda.
[C] Whack all the daddy [F]-o, whack all the daddy [G]-o, there's whiskey [C] in the jar.
Now there's some take the light [Am] in the carriages a-rolling.
[F] And others take the [C] light in the Harley and the bowling.
But I take the light in [Am] the juice of the barley.
[F] And courting pretty [C] fair maids in the morning bright and early, the [G] musher in the Luganda.
[C] Whack all the daddy-o, [F] whack all the daddy [Bm]-o, there's whiskey in the [C] jar.
If anyone can aid me [Am] it is me brother in the army.
[F] If I can find a station [C] in Cork or in Killarney.
And if he'll go with me [Am] we'll go roaming in Kilkenny.
[F] And I'm sure he'll trade me better [C] than me only sporting jenny.
