Nancy Whiskey lyrics

Whiskey, whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey, whiskey Nancy Oh

I'm a weaver, a Carlton weaver
I am a rash and a roving blade
I've got siller in my pockets
And I'll gan followin' the roving trade

Whiskey, whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey, whiskey Nancy Oh

As I come in by Glasgow City
Nancy whiskey I chanced to smell
So I gan in sat down beside her
Seven long years I loved her well

Whiskey, whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey, whiskey Nancy Oh

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

Whiskey, whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey, whiskey Nancy Oh

I woke up early in the morning
To slake my thirst, it was my need
I tried to rise but I was ni' able
For Nancy had me by the heed

Whiskey, whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey, whiskey Nancy Oh

Come a walling lady what's the recknin'
Tell me what I have to pay
Fifteen shillings is the recknin'
Pay me quickly and go away

Whiskey, whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey, whiskey Nancy Oh

As I went to by Glasgow City
Nancy whiskey I chanced to smell
I gave in drank four and six pence
And all was left was a crocked scail

Whiskey, whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey, whiskey Nancy Oh

I'm goin' back to the Carlton weavin'
But surely make the shuttles fly
For I'll mak' more at the Carlton weavin'
Than ever I did in the roving trade

Whiskey, whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey, whiskey Nancy Oh

Come, all you weavers, Carlton weavers
And all ye' weavers where e'er you be
Beware of whiskey, Nancy whiskey
She'll ruin you as she ruined me

Whiskey, whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey, whiskey Nancy Oh

Whiskey, whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey, whiskey Nancy Oh
