I am a weaver a Carleton Weaver,
|
I am a rash and a roving blade
|
I've got silver in my pouches,
|
I'm going to follow the roving trade
|
|
Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whiskey. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o.
|
|
I went in by Glasgow City,
|
Nancy Whisky I chanced to smell,
|
I went in sat down beside her,
|
seven long years I loved her well.
|
|
The more I kissed her the more I loved her,
|
the more I kissed her the more she smiled.
|
I forgot my mother's teaching,
|
Nancy had me beguiled.
|
|
I rose early, in the morning,
|
to quench my thirst, it was my need
|
I tried to rise but I was not able,
|
Nancy Whiskey had me by the knees.
|
|
Come all you weavers;you Carleton weavers,
|
Come all you weavers where ever you be.
|
Beware of Whisky Nancy Whisky,
|
she'll ruin you like she ruined me.
