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. |

How 'bout (the) Baby Face? {repeat 17 times} |

This is another classic Thin Lizzy song and is of particular merit. A major proliferation of environmental songs began in the eighties and nineties by bands such as R.E.M. and the like. Thin Lizzy did this same thing almost twenty years earlier! Mama Nature said "It's murder what you've done" I sent you forth my brightest world Now it's nearly gone Birds and bees Been telling me You can't see The forest for the trees You cover up your lies With sympathies And I got no solutions To your persecution Mama Nature said "I can't believe it's true" I gave you life and food for thought Look what did you do You're killing my rivers Drowning my baby streams Day by day by day by day I hear them scream I'm so disillusioned I'm so disillusioned Mama Nature said "You're guilty of this crime" Now it's not just a matter of fact But just a matter of time Cruel will be the vengeance So savage is the deed that's done And I've got no solutions To your own pollutions |

These words I wrote, play and sing to you
Do not convey the love I brought and bring to you For this is a song for while I'm away To say all the things I'd love to say You are my life, my everything, you're all I have You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true You're all I have Please heed me now these words I have to say Now I'm headed for the border You see this song it ends right at the start I swore when I was younger No one would win my heart And far away hills look greener still But soon they'll all slip away It's then I'll be returning And I'll be coming home to stay You are my life, my everything, you're all I have You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true You're all I have Please heed me now these words I have to say |

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 |
