Notices: As I was a-walkin' 'round Kilgary Mountain
I met with Captain Pepper as his money he was
countin'
I rattled my pistols and I drew forth my saber
Sayin', "Stand and deliver, for I am the bold deceiver."
Chorus
Musha rig um du rum da
Whack fol the daddy o
Whack fol the daddy o
There's whiskey in the jar.

The shinin' golden coins did look so bright and jolly
I took 'em with me home and I gave 'em to my Molly
She promised and she vowed that she never would
deceive me
But the devil's in the women and they never can be
easy.

When I was awakened between six and seven
The guards were all around me in numbers odd and
even
I flew to my pistols, but alas I was mistaken
For Molly's drawn my pistols and a prisoner I was
taken.

They put me into jail without judge or writin'
For robbing Captain Pepper on Kilgary Mountain
But they didn't take my fists so I knocked the sentry
down
And bid a fond farewell to the jail in Sligo town.

Now some take delight in fishin' and in bowlin'
And others take delight in carriages a-rollin'
But I take delight in the juice of the barley
And courtin' pretty girls in the morning so early.

Lyric

While shepherds kept their watchin'
O'er silent flocks by night
Behold throughout the heavens
There shone a holy light

Well, the shepherds feared and trembled
When lo and above the earth
Rang out the angel chorus
That hailed our savior's birth

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

Down in a lowly manger
Our humble Christ was born
And God sent us salvation
That blessed Christmas morn

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born, that Jesus Christ is born
