Kilgarry Mountain
Gordon Lightfoot
| | | As I was a goin' over Kilgary mountain I spied Bill Pepper and his money he was countin´ First I drew my pistols, and then I drew my saber Sayin´ "Stand and deliver, for I am the bold deceiver" Musha rig-um durum da durum Wack fol the daddy-o Wack fol the daddy-o There´s whiskey in the jar I counted up my money, I added up a pretty penny Push it in my pocket and I took it home to my Molly She promised then, She vowed, she never would deceive me But the devil's in the women for they never can be easy Musha rig-um durum da durum Wack fol the daddy-o Wack fol the daddy-o There´s whiskey in the jar Well when I awoke between the hours of six and seven The guards were standing on my bed in numbers odd and even I reach for my pistols but I saw it was mistaken I fired off my pitols so a prisoner I was taken Musha rig-um durum da durum Wack fol the daddy-o Wack fol the daddy-o There´s whiskey in the jar They through me into jail without judge or writin´ For robbing Bill Pepper on that Kilgary Mountain Ha but they didn't take my fists so I knocked that sentry down Bid along farewell to this little stable town Musha rig-um durum da durum Wack fol the daddy-o Wack fol the daddy-o There´s whiskey in the jar There's some take delight in fisherman and a farmer Others take delight in their carriages a-rollin´ But I take delight in the juice of the barley And courting' pretty maidens in the morning ha! so early Musha rig-um durum da durum Wack fol the daddy-o Wack fol the daddy-o There´s whiskey in the jar Musha rig-um durum da durum Wack fol the daddy-o Wack fol the daddy-o There´s whiskey in the jar
