Nancy Whiskey

I am a weaver, a Caltan weaver
I am a rash and roving blade
I've got silver in my pouches
And I follow the roving trade

I came in by Glasgow city
Nancy whiskey I chanced to smell
I went in sat down beside her
Seven long years I loved her well

Whiskey whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey whiskey Nancy-O

The more I kissed her the more I loved her
The more I loved her the more she smiled
I forgot my mother's teaching
Nancy soon had me beguiled

Whiskey whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey whiskey Nancy-O

When I awoke in the early morning
To quench my thirst it was my need
Tried to rise, but I wasnae able
Nancy whiskey had me by the head

Whiskey whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey whiskey Nancy-O

Come on landlady, what's me owin'
Tell me what there is to pay
Fifteen shillings is a reckonin'
Pay me quickly and go away

Whiskey whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey whiskey Nancy-O

Come on you weavers you Caltan weavers
Come all you young men where e'er you be
Beware of whiskey, Nancy whiskey
She'll ruin you like she ruined me
