Whiskey You're The Devil
(Tin flute intro)
DNow brave boys we're on the march
AOff to PortuGgal and Spain

Drums A-beating, banners A-waving
The Gdevil a-home will Acome tonight
DLa, fare thee well With me tither-y-eye dum Adah
Me Emtither-y-eye dum Gda
DMe right fol tur-a ladee
Oh, there's Awhiskey in the Djar
Chorus:
Hey, Dwhiskey you're the devil You're Gleading me aDstray
DO'er hills and mountains Ainto Amerikay
DYour sweetness from the bleachner You're Gspunkier than Dtea,
DAh, whiskey you're me darlin', drunk or Aso-Dber
The French are fighting boldly
Men are dying hot and coldly
Give every man his flash, gunpowder
His firelock on his shoulder
La, fare thee well With me tither-y-eye dum dah
Me tither-y-eye dum da
Me right fol tur-a ladee
Oh, there's whiskey in the jar

Says the mother, "Do not wrong me
Don't take me daughter from me
For if you do, I will torment you
And after death me ghost will haunt you"

Me tither-y-eye dum da
Me right fol tur-a ladee
Oh, there's whiskey in the jar
