Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, [E] Nancy, oh
I am a weaver, a Carlton weaver I am a rash and a roving blade
I've got [B] Scylla in my [E] pooches And I'll gang follow the Roman trade
Whiskey, [B] whiskey, Nancy [E] Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, Nancy, oh
As I come in by Glasgow City Nancy, whiskey, [A] I chanced [E] a smell
So I gazed in sad doom beside her Seven long years I loved her well
Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, Nancy, oh
The mare I kissed [B] had the mare I looed [E] Had the mare I looed, had the mare she smiled
And I forgot [B] my mother's [E] teaching Nancy soon had me beguiled
Whiskey, whiskey, [B] Nancy [E] Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, Nancy, oh
I woke up early in the morning To stake my deuce, it wasn't my need
I tried to [B] rise, but I wasn't [E] able For Nancy had me by the heed
Whiskey, whiskey, [B] Nancy [E] Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, Nancy, oh
Come along, [B] lady, and what's the [E] reckon?
And tell me what I have to pay
[B] Fifteen shillings is the [E] reckon And pay me quickly and [B] go [E] away
Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, Nancy, oh
As I went out by Glasgow City Nancy, whiskey, I chanced a smell
I gazed in, [B] drank four and [E] sixpence And all that was left [B] was a crooked [E] scale
Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, Nancy, oh
I'll gang back to [B] the Carlton Weaver And [E] I'll surely make the shuttles fly
But I'll muck more at the Carlton Weaver Than ever I did in the Roman trade
Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, Nancy, oh
Come all ye weavers, [B] Carlton [E] weavers And all ye weavers, where'er ye be
Beware of whiskey, [B] Nancy whiskey [E] She'll ruin you [B] as she [E] ruined me
Whiskey, [B] whiskey, Nancy [E] Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, Nancy, oh
Whiskey, [B] whiskey, Nancy [E] Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, Nancy, oh
