As I was going over the far fam'd Kerry Mountains

I met with Captain Farrel, and his money he was countin'

I first produced my pistol, and I than produced my rapier

I counted out his money and it made a pretty penny

I put it in my pocket, and I took it home to Jenny

She sighed, and she swore that she never would deceive me

But the devil take the women for they never can be easy

I went into my chamber all for to take a slumber

I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure it was no wonder

But Jenny drew my charges and she filled them out with water

'Twas early in the morning just before I rose to travel

Up comes a band of footmen and likewise, Captain Farrel

But I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken

If anyone can aid me 'tis my brother in the army
