Whisky In The Jar — текст песни (Seekers)

As I went a-walkin` on Kilgary Mountain,
I spied Colonel Pepper, and his money he was countin`;
I rattled out my pistols and I drew forth my saber,
Cryin`, Stand and deliver, for I am a bold deceiver.
Chorus:
Musha rig um du rum da,
Whack fol the daddy o,
Whack fol the daddy o,
There`s whisky in the jar.
The gold and silver coins, they looked so bright and shiny,
Oh, I took them home straightway, and I gave `em to my Molly;
She vowed and she promised that she never would deceive me,
But the devil`s in the women, oh, you never can believe `em.
(Chorus)
But when I awoke between six and seven,
The guards were all around me in numbers odd and even;
I reached for my pistols, but alas, I was mistaken;
My pistols had been fired, and a prisoner I was taken.
(Chorus)
They put me in the jail without judge or writin`,
For robbing Colonel Pepper, oh, on Kilgary Mountain,
But they didn`t take my fists, so I knocked the sentry down,
And bade farewell to the jail in Sligo town.
(Chorus)
Some people take delight in fishin` and in bowlin`;
Oh, others take delight in the carriages a-rollin`;
But I take delight in the juice of the barley,
And courtin` pretty girls `til the morning so early.
