Caltan Weaver lyrics

[Verse 1]
I am a weaver, a Caltan weaver
I am a rash and roving blade
I've got silver in my pouches
And I follow the roving trade

[Chorus]
Whiskey whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey whiskey Nancy-O

[Verse 2]
I came in by Glasgow city
Nancy whiskey I chanced to smell
I went in sat down beside her
Seven long years I loved her well

[Chorus]
Whiskey whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey whiskey Nancy-O

[Verse 3]
The more I kissed her the more I loved her
The more I loved her the more she smiled
I forgot my mother's teaching
Nancy soon had me beguiled
[Chorus]
Whiskey whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey whiskey Nancy-O

[Verse 4]
When I awoke in the early morning
To quench my thirst it was my need
Tried to rise, but I wasn't able
Nancy whiskey had me by the head

[Chorus]
Whiskey whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey whiskey Nancy-O

[Verse 5]
Come on landlady, what's me owin'
Tell me what there is to pay
Fifteen shillings is a reckonin'
Pay me quickly and go away

[Chorus]
Whiskey whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey whiskey Nancy-O

[Verse 6]
Come on you weavers you Caltan weavers
Come all you young men where e'er you be
Beware of whiskey, Nancy whiskey
She'll ruin you like she ruined me
[Chorus]
Whiskey whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey whiskey Nancy-O

[Chorus]
Whiskey whiskey Nancy whiskey
Whiskey whiskey Nancy-O
