Lyrics

1. WHISKY IN THE JAR

As i was going' over the cork and Kerry mountains
I saw captain Farrell and his money he was counting
I first produced my pistol and i then produced my rapier
I said stand or deliver or the devil he may take ya

Musha ring dum a do dum a da.
Wack for my daddy-o,
Wack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the 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 loved me never would she leave me
But the devil take that woman for you know she tricked easy

Being drunk and weary i went to
Molly's chamber takin' my Molly 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.

Now some men like the fishin' and some men like the fowlin',
and some men like ta hear, the cannon ball a roarin'.
Me? i like sleepin' especially in my Molly's chamber.
But here i am in prison, here i am with ball and chain,yeah.


2. THE ROCKER

I am your main man if you're looking for trouble
I'll take no lip 'cause no ones tougher than me
If i kicked your face you'd soon be seeing double
Hey little girl, keep your hands off me 'cause i'm a rocker

I love to rock and roll
I get my records from the rock on stall
Sweet rock and roll
Teddy boy, he's got them all

Down at the juke joint me and the boys were stompin'
Bippin' an a boppin', telling a dirty joke or two
In walked this chick and i knew she was up to something
I kissed her right there out of the blue

I said "hey baby, meet me i'm a tough guy"
Got my cycle outside, you wanna try?
She just looked at me and rolled them big eyes
And said "ooh i'd do anything for you 'cause you're a rocker"

That's right i'm a rocker

I love to rock and roll
I get my records from the rock on stall
Sweet rock and roll
Teddy boy, he's got them all
