I bought her, I drank her, I had another

Ran out of money, so I did steal

She ran me ragged, Nancy Whiskey

For seven years, a rollin' wheel

Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey

Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Ohh

The more I held her, the more I loved her

Nancy had her spell on me

All I knew was lovely Nancy

The things I needed I could not see

Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey

Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Ohh

As I awoke to slake my thirst

As I tried crawling from my bed

I fell down flat, I could not stagger

Nancy had me by the legs

Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey

Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Ohh

Come on landlandy, what's the owing

Tell me what there is to pay

Fifteen shillings that's the reckoning

Now pay me quickly and go away Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey

Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Ohh

Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey

Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Ohh

As I gaed in by Glasgow city,

Nancy whisky I chanced tae smell.

I went in, sat doon beside her,

Seven long years I loved her well.

The mair I kissed her, the mair I loved her,

The mair I kissed her, the mair she smiled,

An I forgot my mither's teaching,

Nancy soon had me beguiled.

I rose early in the morning,

For my drouth, it was my need.

I tried tae rise, but I wasna able,

Nancy had me by the heid.

C'wa landlady, whit's the law then,

Tell me whit there is tae pey?

Fifteen shillings is the reckoning,

Tell me now, then go away!

As I gaed oot by Glasgow city,

Nancy whisky I chanced tae smell.

I went in, spent four and sixpence,

All I got wis a crooked spell.

Sae I'll gan back tae the Calton Weaving,

I will mak' they shuttles fly.

An I'll mak' mair at the Calton weaving,

Than I ever did in a roving way.

C'm all ye weavers, ye Calton weavers,

C'm all ye weavers, wherever ye be,

Bewave o whisky, Nancy whisky,

She'll ruin you, like she ruined me.
