As I was a goin over gilgarra mountain
I spied colonel farrell and his money he was countin
First I drew me pistols, and then I drew me rapier, sayin
Stand and deliver for I am your bold deceiver
Refrain:
Mush-a-ring-um duram da
Whack fol the daddy o
Whack fol the daddy o
Theres whiskey in the jar.
He counted out his money and it made a pretty penny
I put in me pocket to take home to darlin jenny
She sighed and swore she loved me
And never would deceive me
But the devil take the women for they always lie so easy
(refrain)
I went into me chamber all for to take a slumber
To dream of gold and girls and ocourse it was no wonder
Me jenny took me charges and she filled them up with water
Called on colonel farrell to get ready for the slaughter
(refrain)
Next mornin early before I rose to travel
A came a band o footmen and likewise colonel farrell
I goes to draw me pistol for shed stole away me rapier
But a prisoner I was taken, I couldnt shoot the water
(refrain)
They put me into jail with the judge all a-writin
For robbin colonel farrell on gilgarra mountain
But they didnt take me fists so I knocked the jailer down
And bid a farewell to this tight-fisted town
(refrain)
Id like to find me brother, the one thats in the army
I dont know where hes stationed, in cork or in killarney
Together wed go roaminoer the mountains of kilkenny
And I swear hed treat me fairer than me darlin sportin jenny
(refrain)
Theres some takes delight in the carriages and rollin
And some takes delight in the hurley or the bollin
But I takes delight in the juice of the barley
Courtin pretty maids in the mornin oh so early
(refrain)
Peter, Paul and Mary is an American folk music trio formed in 1960 in New York City. Composed of Peter Yarrow, Paul Stookey, and Mary Travers, the group rose to fame in the 1960s for their folk-rock music, often featuring politically and socially conscious lyrics. Among their most notable hits are "If I Had a Hammer", "Blowin' in the Wind" (a cover of Bob Dylan), and "Leaving on a Jet Plane". Peter, Paul and Mary participated in numerous events for the American civil rights movement, such as the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom in 1963.
