Oh, I'm a weaver a Calton weaver,
I'm a rash and a rovin' blade
I got silver in my pockets
And I'm gonna follow the roving trades.
Drinkin Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
When first I came to Dublin City,
Nancy Whisky I chanced to smell,
I went in, and sat down there beside her,
Seven long years, well I loved her well.
Singin, Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
The more I loved her the more I kissed her.
The more I kissed her the more she smiled.
I forgot my mother's teachin',
Nancy's whiskey had me beguiled.
Sayin' Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
I woke early in the morning
To slack my thirst, it was my need
I tried to rise but I wasn't able,
Nancy's whiskey had me down by the knees.
Singin, Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
So, come all you weavers, all you Calton weavers
Come all you lads wherever you be
Stay away, from Nancy's Whisky
Cause she’ll ruin you like she ruined me.
Singin, Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
Singin, Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
