The Town Pants - Nancy Whiskey lyrics

rate me

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.
