As I was goin' over the Cork and Kerry mountains.
I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was countin'. I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier. I said stand o'er and deliver or the devil he may take ya. Musha ring dum a do dum a da. Whack for my daddy-o, Whack 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'd love me, never would she leave me. But the devil take that woman for you know she tricked me easy. Musha ring dum a do dum a da. Whack for my daddy-o, Whack for my daddy-o. There's whiskey in the jar-o. 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. Musha ring dum a do dum a da. Whack for my daddy-o, Whack for my daddy-o. There's whiskey in the jar-o. 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. Musha ring dum a do dum a da. Whack for my daddy-o, Whack for my daddy-o. There's whiskey in the jar-o. And I got drunk on whiskey-o And I love, I love, I love, I love, I love, I love my Molly-o. |

When we were kids he used to go over the back wall into old Dan's scrapyard Into the snooker hall where most us kids were barred An' into the Roxy and the Stella where film stars starred That's where me and Hopalong an' Roy Rogers got drunk and jarred And we might have been the saviour of the men, the captured captain in the devil's demon den And we might have been the magic politician in some kind of tricky position Like an old, old, old master musician we kept on wishin' We was headed for the number one hit country again {Chorus} And it's true True blue Irish blue And it's true True blue And sometimes it reminds me of you There's an old photograph of Dan that I wish you could-a seen Of him and the boys posed, standing in St. Stephen's Green Ya see, they were a part of the great freedom dream But they were caught and detained and are locked inside the frame of the photograph And he might have been the clever con, the good samaritan, the rassclaut man An' he might have been the loaded gun, the charlatan of the tap dancin' fan But like an old pioneer from outer Afghanistan, headed for the number one hit country again {repeat chorus} Old Dan in a raincoat hums the very, very, very special notes of a long lost favorite melody It reminds him of a love affair when he was young and did not care And how he parted so soft, so sadden And he might have been the laughing cavaliero, the wise old commanchero Ow, the desparate desparado, the good looking Randolph Valentino, the gigolo from Glasgow But like an old, old hunter of the female buffalo, he's headed for the number one hit country again {repeat chorus} And it's true True blue Irish blue True blue Irish blue And it's true It's so true Ummm, it's true I swear I've said it Swear I've said it I swear I said it I swear it's true And it's true True blue Oh, its Irish blue And it's true... |

After our affair I swore that I'd leave Dublin And in that line I'd left behind The years, the tears, the memories and you In Dublin At the quays friends come and say farewell We'd laugh and joke and smoke And later on the boat I'd cry over you In Dublin How can I leave the town that brings me down That has no jobs Is blessed by God And makes me cry Dublin And at sea with flowing hair I'd think of Dublin Of Grafton Street and Derby Square And those for whom I really care and you In Dublin |
