Lyrics

As I went down through Glasgow city
Just to see what I might spy
What should I see but Nancy Whiskey
A playful twinkle in her eye
Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy Whiskey
Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy, oh
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, oh
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, oh
As I arose 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, oh
Come on landlady, what's the owing?
Tell me what there is to pay
Fifteen shillings, that's the reckoning
Pay me quickly and go away
Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy Whiskey
Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy, oh
Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy Whiskey
Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy, oh
