Irish Song Lyrics 
from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk
 Nancy Whiskey 
"I'm a weaver, a carlton weaver I'm a rash and rovi'n blade I've got silver in me pouches And I follow the rovin trade 
chorus: Whiskey whiskey, Nancy Whiskey Whiskey whiskey, nancy-o 
As I went down to Glasgow city Nancy Whiskey I chanced to smell I walked in, and I sat right down beside her For seven long years now I've loved her well 
(chorus) 
The more I kissed her, the more I liked her The more I kissed her the more she smiled Soon I'd forgotten my own poor mother's teachin Nancy whiskey soon had me beguiled 
(chorus) 
As I awoke early in the morning To slake my thirst it was my need I tried to arise but I was unable Nancy whiskey had me by the knees 
(chorus) 
So I've gone back to my carlton weaving I'll surely make those shuttles fly For I'll learn more at the carlton weaving Than ere I did at this roaming trade 
(chorus) 
So come ye weavers, yoe carlton weavers Come all ye weavers, where ere you be Beware of whiskey, Nancy Whiskey She'll ruin you like she ruined me 
(chorus)
