Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, 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] putches And I'll gang follow the roving trade
Whiskey, [B] whiskey, Nancy Whiskey, [E] 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 [B] kissed had the [E] mare I loothed Had the mare I loothed, had the mare she smiled
And I [B] forgot my mother's teaching [E] Nancy soon had me beguiled
Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, Nancy, oh
I woke up early in the morning To stake my truth, it wasn't my need
I tried to rise, but I wasnae 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 [B] and 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, drank [B] four and [E] six Then all that was left was a crooked scale
Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, Nancy, oh
I'll gang back to the carlton weaving I'll surely make the shuttles fly
But I'll muck more at the carlton weaving Than ever I did in the roving 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, 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
