Whiskey, youre the devil
Youre leading me astray
Over hills and mountains
And to Amerikay
Youre sweeter, stronger, decenter
Youre spunkier than tae
Whiskey, youre me darling drunk or sober
Now brave boys, were on the march
Off to Portugal and Spain
The drums are beating, banners high
And the Devil a-home will come tonight
So love, fare thee well
With a too da loo ra loo ra doo de da
With a too ra loo ra loo ra doo de da
Me rikes fall too ra laddie-o
Theres whiskey in the jar
Whiskey, youre the devil
Youre leading me astray
Over hills and mountains
And to Amerikay
Youre sweeter, stronger, decenter
Youre spunkier than tae
Whiskey, youre me darling drunk or sober
The French are fighting boldly
Men are dying hot and coldly
Give every man his flask of powder
A firelock on his shoulder
And then love, 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
Theres whiskey in the jar
Whiskey, youre the devil
Youre leading me astray
Over hills and mountains
And to Amerikay
Youre sweeter, stronger, decenter
Youre spunkier than tae
Whiskey, youre me darling drunk or sober
Mother, do not wrong me
Dont take me daughter from me
For if you do, Ill torment you
When Im dead my ghost will haunt you
And its love, 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
Theres whiskey in the jar
Whiskey, youre the devil
Youre leading me astray
Over hills and mountains
And to Amerikay
Youre sweeter, stronger, decenter
Youre spunkier than tae
Whiskey, youre me darling drunk or sober
