Whiskey in the Jar - Traditional Irish Song

As I was going over the Cork and Kerry Mountains
I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was countin'
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier
I said "Stand and deliver or the devil he may take ya"
I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny
I took all of his money yeah 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, yeah, for you know she tricked me easy
Musha rain dum-a-doo dum-a-da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o
Being drunk and weary I went to Molly's chamber
Takin' 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
Musha rain dum-a-doo dum-a-da, ha, ya
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o
Yeah, whiskey, yo, whiskey...
Oh-oh, ya
Now some men like a fishin', but some men like the fowlin'
Some men like to hear, to hear the cannonball a-roarin'
But me, I like sleepin', `specially in my Molly's chamber
But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain, yeah
Musha rain dum-a-doo dum-a-da, ha, ya
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o
Whiskey in the jar-o
Musha rain dum-a-doo dum-a-da
Musha rain dum-a-doo dum-a-da, hey
Musha rain dum-a-doo dum-a-da
Musha rain dum-a-doo dum-a-da, ya

Yes, I am basing this off pretty much that one line

Here's a link to a good version from Thin Lizzy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TehFZ38kt6o&mode=related&search=

A couple of better choices IMO would be "God's Gonna Cut You Down" by Johnny Cash (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1e0EQlQXoEo) or the "Dies Irae" portion of Mozart's Requiem (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nl-wRbJoWVA).

Yeah I think God's Gonna Cut You Down" takes the cake, great song.

I was about to suggest Johnny Cash "God's Gonna Cut You Down"

I was going to say "In Time" by Mark Collie. If it sounds familiar you might remember it from The Punisher. Lemme see if I can find it...Ignore the fact that it's composed of clips from Heroes. One of the only videos I could find with the whole song in it.

Nevertheless, I think Johnny Cash's "God's Gonna Cut You Down" takes the cake, completely.

a witchhunter theme song? it has to be "Sentenced to burn",by Cannibal Corpse...read the lyrics and you`ll see why:

" Follow the one
Evil masked in pride
Charisma to lead
Speeches laced with hate

Leading the dense
The bovine human herd
Inherently stupid
The fools deserve this fate

Warfare begins
Cities are ablaze
Tortured screams
Skin turning black

Carbonization
They will all burn
Mass execution
They will all die

Burning the world
And all of it's life
Throwing all the people
In a pit of fire

Watching the sheep
Gathering to die
Followers in life
Follow to the grave

Follow the one
Evil masked in pride
Charisma to lead
Speeches laced with hate

Leading the dense
The bovine human herd
Inherently stupid
The fools deserve this fate

Warfare begins
Cities are ablaze
Tortured screams
Skin turning black

Carbonization
They will all burn
Mass execution
They will all die

Pile the bodies
Set them aflame
The human race
Sentenced to burn

Burning flesh
Miasma of their death
Civilisation
It is destroyed

Pits of corpses
Unholy grave of war
Hanging victims
Guilty of free thought

Warfare begins
Cities are ablaze
Tortured screams
Skin turning black

Carbonization
They will all burn
Mass execution
They will all die

Pile the bodies
Set them aflame
The human race
Sentenced to burn
Pile the bodies
Set them aflame
The human race
Sentenced to burn

War of fire shred their souls
Burn in hell doomsday's toll
Failed to see the trap they laid
Demagogues lead them into the flames "

Sorry to contribute so late, however!!-- I was driving along in my minivan of doom (tm) today, listening to some good ol' classics, and came across a song that I thought very fitting to the feel I get from the Witchhunter class.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1MQW5e6KcE

Listen to the lyrics, and thou shalt understandith..ith. I listen to this individual whenever I'm killing people in games.

"Dead in the dark,
hound of hell you cry,
devil on your back,
I can never die!"

Just have to add - that is one of the BEST music videos of all time. I laugh every time.

My vote goes with "May the Living be Dead in our Wake" by Flogging Molly as was already suggested. It's got good rhythm and you can listen to it many times without wanting to tear off your own ears, a definite plus in the current world.

WOOT! Chock up one win for McRuskie! I went to their concert here in San Francisco, and they played it really cool hard rock style. Check Youtube, they might have a video of that song from the concert, not sure. It was called "The San Francisco Oyster and Beer Festival 2007"

Queens of the Stone Age - Burn the Witch

Holding hands
Skipping like a stone
On our way
To see what we have done
The first to speak
Is the first to lie
The children cross
Their hearts & hope to die

Bite your tongue
Swear to keep your mouth shut

Ask yourself
Will i burn in Hell?
Then write it down
& cast it in the well
There they are
The mob it cries for blood
To twist the tale
Into fire wood
Fan the flames
With a little lie
Then turn your cheek
Until the fire dies
The skin it peels
Like the truth, away
What it was
I will never say...

Bite your tongue, swear to keep
Keep your mouth shut
Make up something
Make up something good...

Holding hands
Skipping like a stone
Burn the witch
Burn to ash & bone
Burn the witch
Burn to ash & bone
Burn the witch
Burn to ash & bone

How about ManoWar's Warriors of the World.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmO-gNJrU_w

here are the lyrics:


Here our Soldiers stand
from all around the World
waiting in a line
to hear the battle cry
all are gathered here
Victory is near
The Sound will fill the hall
bringing Power to us all
we alone are fighting
for metal that is true
we own the right to live the fight
we're here for all of you
Now swear the blood upon your Steel
will never dry
stand and fight together
beneath the battle sky

Refrain:
Brothers everywhere
raise your hands into the air
we're warriors, warriors of the World

Like thunder from the sky
sworn to fight and die
we're warriors, warriors of the World

Verse:
Many stand against us
but they will never win
We said we would return
and here we are again
to bring them all Destruction
suffering and pain
We are the Hammer of the gods
we are Thunder wind and rain
there you wait in fear
with swords in feeble hands
with dreams to be a King
First - one should be a man
I call them out
and charge them all
with a life that is a lie
and in their final hour
they shall confess before they die

Refrain:
Brothers everywhere
raise your hands into the air
we're warriors, warriors of the World

Like thunder from the sky
sworn to fight and die
we're warriors, warriors of the World



Bridge:
If I should fall in battle
my brothers who fight by my side
gather my horse, and weapons
tell my Family how I died
Until then I will be strong
I will fight for all that is real
All who stand in my way will die[DIE] by steel

Refrain:
Brothers everywhere
raise your hands into the air
we're warriors, warriors of the World (2x)

Like thunder from the sky
sworn to fight and die
we're warriors, warriors of the World

Brothers everywhere
raise your hands into the air
we're warriors, warriors of the World (2x)

Like thunder from the sky
sworn to fight and die
we're warriors, warriors of the World

Brothers everywhere
raise your hands into the air
we're warriors, warriors of the World (2x)


Arigato!! m(_ _)m
