_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] It made a pretty penny.
[G] I put it in me pocket [D] and I took it home to Jenny.
She sighed and she swore [Bm] that she never would deceive [G] me.
But the devil takes the women [D] for they never cut me easy, [A] Mushering them to the bottom.
[D] _
Quack all the day [G]-o, quack all the day [D]-o, there's whiskey in the gill-a.
I went up to my [Bm] chamber of bar to take a [G] slumber.
Drenched in molten jewels [D] and for sure it was no wonder.
But Jenny drew me to her, [Bm] dood she filled them up with water.
[G] Then set for camp and well, [D] we'll be ready for the slaughter, [A] Mushering them to the bottom.
[D] _
Quack all the day [G]-o, quack all the day [D]-o, there's whiskey in the gill-a.
There's some who take the light [Bm] in the carriages a-rolling.
[G] Others take the [D] light in the hurly at the bowling.
But I take the [Bm] light in the jewels of the barley.
[G] I'm boarding pretty fair [D] late in the morning, right and right [A] in the sherry on the gill-a.
_ [D] _
Quack all the day [G]-o, quack all the day [D]-o, there's whiskey in the gill-a.
And if anyone can aid me, [Bm] it is my brother in the army.
[G] If I can find a station [D] and arm a whip at our knee.
And if he'll go with a [Bm] millie, we'll go rolling in Kilkenny.
[G] And I'm sure he'll treat me better than [D] we only sport in Jenny.
[A] Mushering them to the [D] bottom.
Quack all the [G] day-o, quack all the day-o, [D] there's whiskey in the gill-a.
[A] Mushering them to the bottom.
_ [D] Quack all the day-o, [G] quack all the day [D]-o, there's whiskey in the gill-a.
