Highwayman
I laid my head in Molly's bed
Oh just to get a slumber
But the devil's in the woman
She filled my pistols full of water
Oh I laid my head in Molly's bed
Oh, for to get a slumber
When the strong guards came and surrounded me
And likewise was Captain Slaughter
Will my rig a do a day
Will it do a daddy, boys
Will my rig a do a daddy, boys
There's whiskey in the jar
So I flew to my pistols
And there I was mistaken
For I let a drop of water fall and prisoner I was taken
But if my mother she was here the night
Oh wouldn't I be mistaken
She would take me in her arms
And to Ireland I'd be taken
Will my rig a do a day
Will it do a daddy, boys
Will my rig a do a daddy, boys
There's whiskey in the jar
Will my rig a do a day
Will it do a daddy, boys
Will my rig a do a daddy, boys
There's whiskey in the jar
Will my rig a do a day
Will it do a daddy, boys
Will my rig a do a daddy, boys
There's whiskey in the jar
Oh just to get a slumber
But the devil's in the woman
She filled my pistols full of water
Oh I laid my head in Molly's bed
Oh, for to get a slumber
When the strong guards came and surrounded me
And likewise was Captain Slaughter
Will my rig a do a day
Will it do a daddy, boys
Will my rig a do a daddy, boys
There's whiskey in the jar
So I flew to my pistols
And there I was mistaken
For I let a drop of water fall and prisoner I was taken
But if my mother she was here the night
Oh wouldn't I be mistaken
She would take me in her arms
And to Ireland I'd be taken
Will my rig a do a day
Will it do a daddy, boys
Will my rig a do a daddy, boys
There's whiskey in the jar
Will my rig a do a day
Will it do a daddy, boys
Will my rig a do a daddy, boys
There's whiskey in the jar
Will my rig a do a day
Will it do a daddy, boys
Will my rig a do a daddy, boys
There's whiskey in the jar
