    Basically... You have to tell me the name of the song, First person to do this wins. This will be a short giveaway... Just saying.

    Song:
    As I was a goin' over the far famed Kerry mountains
    I met with captain Farrell and his money he was counting
    I first produced my pistol and I then produced my rapier
    Saying "Stand and deliver" for he were a bold deceiver

    (Chorus)

    I counted out his money and it made a pretty penny
    I put it in me pocket and I took it home to Jenny
    She sighed and she swore that she never would deceive me
    But the devil take the women for they never can be easy

    (Chorus)

    I went up to my chamber, all for to take a slumber
    I dreamt of gold and jewels and for sure 't was no wonder
    But Jenny drew me charges and she filled them up with water
    Then sent for captain Farrell to be ready for the slaughter

    (Chorus)

    'twas early in the morning, just before I rose to travel
    Up comes a band of footmen and likewise captain Farrell
    I first produced me pistol for she stole away me rapier
    But I couldn't shoot the water, so a prisoner I was taken

    (Chorus)

    Now there's some take delight in the carriages a rolling
    and others take delight in the hurling and the bowling
    but I take delight in the juice of the barley
    and courting pretty fair maids in the morning bright and early

    (Chorus)

    If anyone can aid me 't is my brother in the army
    If I can find his station in Cork or in Killarney
    And if he'll go with me, we'll go rovin' in Kilkenny
    And I'm sure he'll treat me better than my own a-sporting Jenny
    The chorus has been taken out. Otherwise this would be easy.

    Also note that the winner will be the FIRST to person to get it right.
