Nancy Whiskey

Chorus:

Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy whiskey

Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy O

(Repeat twice at the beginning)

I am a weaver, a Calton weaver

I am a brash and a roving blade

I got silver in my britches

And I follow a roving trade

Chorus

As I went into Glasgow city

Nancy Whiskey I did to smell

I walked in, sat down beside her

Seven long years I loved her well

Chorus

The more I kissed her, the more I knew her

The more I loved her, the more she smiled

I forgot my mother's teaching

Nancy soon had me beguiled

Chorus

I woke early in the mornin'

Lying halfway off the bed

I tried to rise but was not able

Nancy damn near knocked me dead

Chorus

I'll gang back to the Calton weaving

I'll surely make those shuttles fly

I'll make more at the Calton weaving

Than ever I did in a roving way

Chorus

All you weavers, Calton weavers

All you Weavers where e're ye be

Beware of Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey

She'll ruin you, she ruined me

Chorus
