As I was goin' over, the Cork and Kerry mountains

I saw Captain Farrell, and his money he was countin'
    G                           Em
I first produced my pistol, and then produced my rapier

I said stand and deliver, or the devil he may take ya

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

Now some men like the fishin', and some men like the fowlin'

And some men like ta hear, a cannon ball a roarin'
     G                     Em
But me I like sleepin', specially in my Molly's chamber
C                               G
