Now brave boys, we're on the march

Off to Portugal and Spain

Drums are beating, banners flying

The Devil at home will come tonight



So it's go, fare thee well

With a too da loo ra loo ra doo de da

A too ra loo ra loo ra doo de da

Me rikes fall too ra laddie-o, there's whiskey in the jar



Oh, whiskey you're the devil, you're leading me astray

Over hills and mountains and to Amerikay

You're sweetness from the Bleachner and spunkier than tea

Oh, whiskey you're my darling drunk or sober



The French are fighting boldly

Men are dying hot and coldly

Give every man his flask of powder

His firelock on his shoulder



So its go, fare thee well

With a too da loo ra loo ra doo de da

A too ra loo ra loo ra doo de da

Me rikes fall too ra laddie-o, there's whiskey in the jar



Oh, whiskey you're the devil, you're leading me astray

Over hills and mountains and to Amerikay

You're sweetness from the Bleachner and spunkier than tea

Oh, whiskey you're my darling drunk or sober



Says the old man, do not wrong me

Don't take me daughter from me

For if you do I will torment you

When I'm dead my ghost will haunt you



So its go, fare thee well

With a too da loo ra loo ra doo de da

A too ra loo ra loo ra doo de da

Me rikes fall too ra laddie-o, there's whiskey in the jar



Oh, whiskey you're the devil, you're leading me astray

Over hills and mountains and to Amerikay

You're sweetness from the Bleachner and spunkier than tea

Oh, whiskey you're my darling drunk or sober



Oh, whiskey you're the devil, you're leading me astray

Over hills and mountains and to Amerikay

You're sweetness from the Bleachner and spunkier than tea

Oh, whiskey you're my darling drunk or sober
