As I was a goin' over the far famed Kerry mountains 
 I met with captain Farrell and his money he was counting 
 I first produced my pistol and I then produced my rapier 
 Saying 'stand and deliver for you are a bold deceiver”  
  
 Refr. 
 Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da 
 Wack fall the daddy-o, wack fall the daddy-o 
 There's whiskey in the jar 
  
 I counted out his money and it made a pretty penny 
 I put it in me pocket and I took it home to Jenny 
 She sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me 
 But the devil takes the women for they never can be easy 
  
 Refr. 
  
 I went up to my chamber, all for to take a slumber 
 I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure 't was no wonder 
 But Jenny drew me charges and she filled them up with water 
 Then sent for captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter 
  
 Refr. 
  
 It was early in the morning, just before I rose to travel 
 Up comes a band of footmen and likewise captain Farrell 
 I first produced me pistol for she’s stolen away me rapier 
 But I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken 
  
 Refr. 
  
 If anyone can aid me 'tis my brother in the army 
 If I can find a station in Cork or in Killarney 
 And if he'll go with me, we'll go rovin' through Killkenny 
 And I'm sure he'll treat me better than my own a-sporting Jenny
