Santiano - Whiskey in the Jar [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Strophe 1:]
As I was a goin' over the far famed
Kerry mountains
I met with captain Farrell and his money
He was counting
I first produced my pistol and I then
Produced my rapier
Saying "Stand and deliver"
For he were a bold deceiver

[Refrain:]
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Wack fall the daddy-o
Wack fall the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

[Strophe 2:]
I counted out his money and it made
A pretty penny
I put it in me pocket and I took it
Home to Jenny
She sighed and she swore
That she never would deceive me
But the devil take the women
For they never can be easy

[Refrain:]
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Wack fall the daddy-o
Wack fall the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

[Strophe 3:]
I went up to my chamber
All for to take a slumber
I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure
't was no wonder
But Jenny blew me charges
And she filled them up with water
The sent for captain Ferrell
To be ready for the slaughter

[Refrain:]
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Wack fall the daddy-o
Wack fall the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

[Strophe 4:]
'T was early in the morning
Just before I rose to travel
Up comes a band of footmen
And likewise captain Farrell
I first produced me pistol
For she stole away me rapier
I couldn't shoot the water
So a prisoner I was taken

[Refrain:]
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Wack fall the daddy-o
Wack fall the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

[Strophe 5:]
Now there's some take delight
In the carriages a rolling
And others take delight
In the hurling and and the bowling
But I take delight in the juice of the barley
And counting pretty fair maids in the morning
Bright and early

[Refrain:]
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Wack fall the daddy-o
Wack fall the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar

[Bridge:]
Whiskey, Whiskey, Whiskey, Whiskey in the jar (2x)

[Refrain:] 2x
Mush-a ring dum-a do dum-a da
Wack fall the daddy-o
Wack fall the daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar
