Nancy Whiskey

Nancy Whisky
I am a weaver a Calton Weaver, I am a rash and a rovin' blade
I've got sill'er in my pooches and I'll gang an' follow the roving trade.

Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!

As I went in by Glasgow City, Nancy Whisky I chanced to smell,
I went in, sat doon beside her, seven long years I loo'ed her well.

Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!

The mair I kissed her the mair I loo'ed her.
The mair I kissed her the mair she smiled.
Til I forgot my mither's teachin', Nancy soon had me beguiled.

Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!

When I awoke in the early morning to quench my thirst it was my need
I tried to rise but I wisna able, Nancy had me by the heid.

Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
 [bad word] awa' landlady what's the owin', tell me what there is to pay
Fifteen shillingsi s the reckoning, pay me quickly and go away.

Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!

I'll gang back tae the Calton weaving,
I'll surely mak the shuttles fly,
For I'll mak mair at the Calton weaving than ever I did in the roving way

Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
 [bad word] all you weavers, Calton [bad word] all you weavers where ere you be.
Beware of Whisky Nancy Whisky, [bad word] you as [bad word] me.

Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
