Gilgarry Mountain (Darlin' Spor - The Limeliters

I have been a rover I have been a bold deceiver

But now I make me livin' with me pistols and me rapier

I don’t know what I’ve stolen, but twould make a pretty penny

I almost lost it all to me darlin sportin jenny

Musha ring um dur um da

Wack fol the daddy-o

Wack fol the daddy-o

There’s whiskey in the jar

I robbed colonel Farrel up on Gilgarry Mountain

I took the gold to Jenny just to help me with the countin'

But Jenny called the guards

Lord I never saw so many

I almost lost my freedom with my darling sporting Jenny

Musha ring um dur um da

Wack fol the daddy-o

Wack fol the daddy-o

There’s whiskey in the jar

I’d like to find me brother he’s the one that’s in the army

I don’t know where he’s stationed

Be it Cork or in Killarney

Together we’d go roamin' o’er the mountains of Killkenny

I’d swear he’d treat me fairer than my darling sportin' Jenny

Musha ring um dur um da

Wack fol the daddy-o

Wack fol the daddy-o

There’s whiskey in the jar

'Twas early in the morning at the barracks of Killarney

My brother took his leave

But he didn’t tell the army

Our horses they were speeding

'twas all over but the shoutin'

Now we make our livin' up on Killgary Mountain

Musha ring um dur um da

Wack fol the daddy-o

Wack fol the daddy-o

There’s whiskey in the jar

Musha ring um dur um da

Wack fol the daddy-o

Wack fol the daddy-o

There’s whiskey in the jar
