Calton Weaver Lyrics - Clancy Brothers

CALTON WEAVER 

I am a weaver, a Calton weaver 

I am a brash and a roving blade 

I have silver in my pouches 

And I follow a roving trade 

Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy whiskey 

Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy O 

As I walked into Glasgow city 

Nancy Whiskey I chanced to smell 

I walked in, sat down beside her 

Seven long years I loved her well 

The more I kissed her, the more I loved her 

The more I kissed her, the more she smiled 

I forgot my mother's teaching 

Nancy soon had me beguiled 

Now I rose early in the morning 

To slake my thirst, it was my aim 

I tried to rise but I was not able 

Nancy had me by the knees 

I'm going back to the guild of weaving 

I'll really make those shuttles fly 

I'll make more at the Calton weaving 

Than ever I did in a roving way 

So come all ye weavers, ye Calton weavers 

Weavers where e're ye be 

Beware of Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey 

She'll ruin you like she ruined me
