EC#m
As I was going over the Cork and Kerry Mountains,
AE
I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was counting.
C#m
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier,
AE
I said: A"Stand and deliver or the devil he may take ya."

EC#m
I took all of his money, and it was a pretty penny.
AE
I took all of his money, and I brought it home to Molly.
C#m
She swore that she loved me, no, never would she leave me,
AE
but the devil take that woman, for you know she tricked me easy.

EC#m
Now some men like the fishing and some men like the fowling,
AE
and some men like to hear, to hear the cannonball a-roaring.

Me, I like sleeping. Especially in my Molly`s chambre,
AE
but here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain, yeah.
