C As I was goin’ over the Ami Cork and Kerry mountains
F I saw Captain Farrell and his C money he was countin’
I first produced my pistol and then Ami produced my rapier
I said F stand and deliver or C the devil he may take ya
R: Musha G ring dum a doo dum a da
F Whack for my daddy-o
C Whack for my daddy-o
There’s whiskey in the G jar-o
I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny
I took all of his money and I brought it home to Molly
She swore that she’d love me, never would she leave me
But the devil take that woman for you know she treat me easy
R:
Being drunk and weary I went to Molly’s chamber
Takin’ my money with me and I never knew the danger
For about six or maybe seven in walked Captain Farrell
I jumped up, fired off my pistols and I shot him with both barrels
R:
Now some men like the fishin’ and some men like the fowlin’
And some men like ta hear a cannon ball a roarin’
Me I like sleepin’ specially in my Molly’s chamber
But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain yeah
