Darlin' Sportin' Jenny - The Brothers Four

作词：Bob Gibson/Bob Camp/Frank Warner

作曲：Bob Gibson/Bob Camp/Frank Warner

I have been a rover

I have been a bold deceiver

Now I make my livin'

with my pistol and my rapier

don't know what I've stolen

but 'twould make a pretty penny

And I've lost it all

to my darlin' sportin' Jenny

Musha rig um du rum da

Whack fol the daddy-o

Whack fol the daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

I robbed Colonel Farrell

up on Gilgarry Mountain

I took gold to Jenny for

the help me with the countin'

But Jenny called the guards Lord

I've never saw so many

I almost lost my freedom

with my darlin' sportin' Jenny

Musha rig um du rum da

Whack fol the daddy-o

Whack fol the daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

I'd like to find me brother

he's the one that's in the army

I don't know where he's stationed

be it Cork or in Kilarney

Together we'd go rovin'

over the mountains of Kilkenny

I'd swear he'd treat me fairer

than my darlin' sportin' Jenny

Musha rig um du rum da

Whack fol the daddy-o

Whack fol the daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

'Twas early in the morning

at the barracks of Kilarney

My brother took his leave

but he didn't tell the army

Our horses they were speedy 'twas

all over but the shoutin'

Now we make our livin' up

on Gilgarry Mountain

Musha rig um du rum da

Whack fol the daddy-o

Whack fol the daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar

Whack fol the daddy-o

There's whiskey in the jar
