captain Farrell and his money he was counting<br \/>\nI first produced my pistol, and the produced my rapier<br \/>\nSaid stand and deliver, for I am a bold deceiver<\/p>\n<p>Chorus:<br \/>\nMusha ring dumma do damma da<br \/>\nWhack for the laddie-o<br \/>\nWhack for the laddie-o<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s whiskey in the jar<\/p>\n<p>I counted out his money, and it made a pretty penny<br \/>\nI put it in my pocket and I brought it home to Jenny<br \/>\nShe sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me<br \/>\nBut the devil take the women, for they never can be easy<\/p>\n<p>Chorus<\/p>\n<p>I went into my chamber, for to take a slumber<br \/>\nI dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure it was no wonder<br \/>\nBut Jenny took my charges and she filled them up with water<br \/>\nAnd send for captain Farrel to be ready for the slaughter<\/p>\n<p>Chorus<\/p>\n<p>It was early in the morning, before I rose to travel<br \/>\nThe guards were all around me and likewise captain Farrel<br \/>\nI first produced my pistol, for she stole away my rapier<br \/>\nBut I couldn&#8217;t shoot the water so a prisoner I was taken<\/p>\n<p>Chorus<\/p>\n<p>If anyone can aid me, it&#8217;s my brother in the army<br \/>\nIf I can find his station in Cork or in Killarney<br \/>\nAnd if he&#8217;ll come and save me, we&#8217;ll go roving near Kilkenny<br \/>\nAnd I swear he&#8217;ll treat me better than me darling sporting Jenny<\/p>\n<p>Chorus<\/p>\n<p>Now some men take delight in the drinking and the roving<br \/>\nBut others take delight in the gambling and the smoking<br \/>\nBut I take delight in the juice of the barley<br \/>\nAnd courting pretty Jenny in the morning bright and early<\/p>\n<p>Chorus<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As I
