| Her Name Is Nancy Oh the girl that I love, her name is Nancy She's small & she's neat, she's the girl I do fancy I met her one night while out marquee dancing I knew she was nice, all the lads they were glancing Well I asked her name as we danced 'round the floor I knew by her eye we'd soon head for the door I asked her the next dance she give it to me By the end of the night in my arms she would be Chorus Well she lived up by-road by the side of the mountain And my love for her it flowed like a fountain I kissed that night by the end of house Then she took off her shoes and crept in like a mouse Chorus After six months, I did propose Her father got vexed and he burst in me nose Her mother she liked me, she 'twas alright Then Nancy's eyes opened wide with delight Chorus For twenty-five years, now we've been together In good times in bad times tro' all kinds of weather She gave me four big sons, they're so good you see And a daughter, God help her, she's the image of me Chorus & rpt. last line |
