C                     Am 
As I was a-goin' over Gilgarra mountains 
  F                          C            Am 
I met Colonel Pepper and his money he was counting 
  F                          C          Am 
I drew forth my pistol and I rattled my sabre 
        F                        C            Am 
Saying "stand and deliver, for I am a bold deceiver" 



G                  G7 
Musha ringum duram da 
C 
Whack fol de daddy-o 
F 
Whack fol de daddy-o 
        C       G      C 
There's whiskey in the jar 


The shining yellow coins did sure look bright and jolly 
I took the money home and I gave it to my Molly 
She promised and she vowed that she never would deceive me 
But the devil's in the women for they never can be easy 

-Chorus- 

When I awoke between the hours of six and seven 
Guards were standing 'round me in numbers odd and even 
I flew to my pistols, but alas I was mistaken 
I fired off my pistols and a prisoner was taken 

-Chorus- 

They put me in jail without a judge or jury 
For robbing Colonel Pepper in the morning so early 
They didn't take my fist so I knocked down the sentry 
And I bid a long farewell to that cold penitentiary 

-Chorus- 

Some take delight in fishing and bowling 
Others take delight in carriage a-rollin' 
I take delight in the juice of the barley 
Courting pretty women in the morning so early
