i took all of his money – and it was a pretty penny
i took all of his money and – i brought it home to molly
she swore that she loved me – no never would she leave me
but the devil take that woman – for you know she tricked me easy

chorus

being drunk and weary – i went to molly`s chamber
taking my molly with me – but i never knew the danger
for about six or maybe seven – in walked captain farrell
i jumped up , fired my pistols – and i shot him with both barrels

chorus

now some men like the fishing – and some men like fowling
and some men like to hear , – to hear the cannonball A – roaring
me – i like sleeping – especially in my molly`s chamber
but here i Am in prison , – here i Am with a ball and chain , yeah

chorus
