Strum
D-DU-UDU
Now  brave boys we're on the march
Off  to Portugal  and Spain
 Drums -beating,  banners -waving
 The devil  a-home will come  tonight
La,  fare thee well With me tither-y-eye dum dah
 Me tither-y-eye  dum da
Me  right fol tur-a ladee
 Oh, there's whiskey  in the jar
 Hey, whiskey  you?re the devil You?re leading  me astray
O'er  hills and mountains into  Amerikay
Your  sweetness from the bleachner You're spunkier  than tea,
Ah,  whiskey you're me darlin?, drunk or so-ber
 The French are fighting boldly
 Men are dying hot and coldly
 Give every man his flash, gunpowder
 His firelock on his shoulder
 La, fare thee well With me tither-y-eye dum dah
 Me tither-y-eye dum da
 Me right fol tur-a ladee
 Oh, there's whiskey in the jar
 (same as verse)
 Says the mother, "Do not wrong me
 Don't take me daughter from me
 For if you do, I will torment you
 And after death me ghost will haunt you"
 We're off, fare thee well With me tither-y-eye dum dah
 Me tither-y-eye dum da
 Me right fol tur-a ladee
 Oh, there's whiskey in the jar
