Nancy-O

Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy whiskey
I’m in love with Nancy-o
Nancy is my jug of whiskey
Nancy is my darlin’-o

Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy whiskey
I’m in love with Nancy-o
I’ve got silver in my pocket
I’m gonna follow wherever you go

As I walked out into London city
Nancy whiskey I chanced to spy
I walked in, sat down beside her
Seven long years spent by her side

Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy whiskey
I’m in love with Nancy-o
I’ve got silver in my pocket
I’m gonna follow wherever you go

The more I kissed her, the more I loved her
The more I kissed her, the more she smiled
I forgot my mother’s warnin’
Nancy soon had me beguiled

Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy whiskey
I’m in love with Nancy-o
I’ve got silver in my pocket
I’m gonna follow wherever you go

As I walked out through London City
With a heavy heart and an achin’ pain
So many men all courtin’ Nancy
I’ll not love that lass again

Whiskey, whiskey, Nancy whiskey
I’m in love with Nancy-o
I’ve got silver in my pocket
I’m gonna follow wherever you go

Come all you ramblers, you rovin’ gamblers
Come all you lads, where’er you be
Never lose your heart to Nancy
She’ll ruin you as she ruined me
