Lyrics

Whiskey, You’re the Devil

Author Unknown Oh whiskey you’re the Devil, you’re leading me astray
Over hill and mountains and to Amerikay
You’re sweeter, stronger, dacenter, you’re spunkier then tay
Oh whiskey you’re me darling, drunk or sober

Well now me boys we’re on for marching
Off to Portugal or Spain
The Drums are beating, banners flying
The devil a home we’ll come tonight

Love fare thee well
With me skiddery eye dill do dill dump ee da
With me skiddery eye dill do dill dump ee da
Me right fol tooraladdy oh
There’s whiskey in the jar

The French are fighting boldly
Men are dying hot and coldly
Give every man a flask of powder
His firelock on his shoulder

Says the mother do not wrong me
Don’t take my daughter from me
For if you do I will torment you
And after death my death will haunt you
