the calton weaver - the highwaymen (folk) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
well, i am a weaver, a calton weaver
i am a rash and a rovin’ blade
i’ve got silver in my pouches
i’ll gang and follow the rovin’ trade

[chorus]
whiskey, whiskey, nancy whiskey
whiskey, whiskey, nancy*o

[verse 2]
as i come in by glasgow city
nancy whiskey i chanced to smell
i gait in, sat doon 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
thе more i kissed her, thе more she smiled
and i forgot my mother’s teachin’
nancy whiskey had me beguiled
[chorus]
whiskey, whiskey, nancy whiskey
whiskey, whiskey, nancy*o

[verse 4]
i rose early in the mornin’
to slake my drought, it was my need
i tried to rise but i was not able
nancy whiskey had me by the heid

[chorus]
whiskey, whiskey, nancy whiskey
whiskey, whiskey, nancy*o

[verse 5]
come on, landlady, what’s the owin’?
tell me what there is to pay
“fifteen shillin’s is the reck’nin’
pay me quickly and go away”

[chorus]
whiskey, whiskey, nancy whiskey
whiskey, whiskey, nancy*o

[verse 6]
come all ye weavers, ye calton weavers
come all ye weavers where’er you be
beware of whiskey, nancy whiskey
she’ll ruin you as she ruined me (well)
[chorus]
whiskey, whiskey, nancy whiskey
whiskey, whiskey, nancy*o (one more time)

[chorus]
whiskey, whiskey, nancy whiskey
whiskey, whiskey, nancy*o
