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
