[Verse]
   G                     Em
As I was goin' over, the Cork and Kerry mountains
Cadd9                          G
I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was countin
   G                            Em
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier
       Cadd9                     G
I said stand and deliver or the devil he may take ya


[Chorus]
       D
Musha ring dum a doo dum a da

Cadd9
 Whack for my daddy-o

[Verse]
G                              Em
I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny
Cadd9                           G
I took all of his money and I brought it home to Molly
     G                       Em
She swore that shed love me, never would she leave me
        Cadd9                           G
But the devil take that woman for you know she tricked me easy


[Chorus]
       D
Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Cadd9
 Whack for my daddy-o
Cadd9
 Whack for my daddy-o

[Verse 3]
G                       Em
Being drunk and weary I went to Molly's chamber
Cadd9                         G
Takin my money with me and I never knew the danger
       G                 Em
About six or maybe seven in walked Captain Farrell
         Cadd9                            G
I jumped up, fired off my pistols and I shot him with both barrels


[Chorus]
       D
Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Cadd9
 Whack for my daddy-o
Cadd9
 Whack for my daddy-o
          G

[Verse]
     G                             Em
Now some men like the fishin' and some men like the fowlin'
    Cadd9                       G
And some men like to hear the cannon ball a roarin'
G                   Em
Me I like sleepin' specially in my Molly's chamber
    Cadd9                       G  N.C.
But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain, yeah


[Chorus]
       D
Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Cadd9
 Whack for my daddy-o
Cadd9
 Whack for my daddy-o
          G
There's whiskey in the jar-o

 Whack for my daddy-o
