[Verse 1]
[C]As [Am]I wen[C]t [Am]a-walkin[C]' on
[Am]Kilgary Mountain,
[F]I spied Colonel Pepper,
and his [C]money he [Am]was countin';
I [F]rattled out my pistols and I
[C]drew forth [Am]my saber,
Cryin', [F]"Stand and deliver,
for I [C]am a [Am]bold deceiver."
(Chorus:)
Musha [G]rig um do rum da,
[C]Whack fol the daddy o,
[F]Whack fol the daddy o,
There's [C]whisky in the jar.
The gold and silver coins,
they [Am]looked so bright and shiny,
Oh, I [F]took them home straightway,
and I [C]gave 'em to [Am]my Molly;
She [F]vowed and she promised that
she [C]never [Am]would deceive me,
But the [F]devil's in the women, oh,
you [C]never [Am]can [G]believe[C][F]
[C]'em[G].[C]
(Chorus)
But when I awoke [Am]between
six and seven,
[F]The guards were all around me
in [C]numbers odd [Am]and even;
I [F]reached for my pistols, but [C]alas,
I [Am]was mistaken;
My [F]pistols had been fired,
and a [C]prisoner I was [Am]taken.[G][C][F][C][G][C]
(Chorus)
They put me in the jail [Am]without
judge or writin',
For [F]robbing Colonel Pepper,
oh, [C]on Kil[Am]gary Mountain,
But they [F]didn't take my fists,
so I [C]knocked the sentry [Am]down,
And [F]bade farewell to the jail [C]in Sligo
[Am]town.[G][C][F]
[C][G][C]
(Chorus)
Some people take delight in
[Am]fishin' and in bowlin';
Oh, [F]others take delight in the
[C]carriages [Am]a-rollin';
But [F]I take delight in the
[C]juice of the [Am]barley,
And [F]courtin' pretty girls 'til the [C]morning so
[Am]early.
