Liam Clancy - The weavers

We're all met together here to ^Fsit and to ^Ccrack Wi' our glasses in our hands and our ^Fwork upon our ^Gback There's ^Cnae a trade among 'em that can ^Fmend or can ^Cmak If it was'nae for the work of the ^Gwea^Cvers

If it was'nae for the ^Gweavers, ^Amwhat would you ^Emdo Ya ^Fwould'nae hae ^Cclothes that's ^Fmade outta ^Gwool Ya ^Cwould'nae hae a ^Gcoat o' the ^Fblack or the ^Cblue If it was'nae for the work of the ^Gwea^Cvers

Some folk are independent of ^Fother tradesmen's ^Cwork The women need no barber and ^Fdykers need no ^Gcleft But ^Cnone of them can do without a ^Fcoat or a ^Csack No, they can'nae wand the work of the ^Gwea^Cvers

If it was'nae for the ^Gweavers, ^Amwhat would you ^Emdo Ya ^Fwould'nae hae ^Cclothes that's ^Fmade outta ^Gwool Ya ^Cwould'nae hae a ^Gcoat o' the ^Fblack or the ^Cblue If it was'nae for the work of the ^Gwea^Cvers

There's soldiers and there's sailors and ^Fglaziers and ^Call There's doctors and there's ministers and ^Fthem that live by ^Glaw And our ^Cfriends in Sooth America, though ^Fthem we never ^Csaw But we ken they wear the work of the ^Gwea^Cvers

If it was'nae for the ^Gweavers, ^Amwhat would you ^Emdo Ya ^Fwould'nae hae ^Cclothes that's ^Fmade outta ^Gwool Ya ^Cwould'nae hae a ^Gcoat o' the ^Fblack or the ^Cblue If it was'nae for the work of the ^Gwea^Cvers

The weavin' is a trade that ^Fnever can ^Cfail As long as we need clothes for to ^Fkeep another ^Ghale So ^Clet us all be merry o'er a ^Fbicker o' good ^Cale And we'll drink to the health of the ^Gwea^Cvers

If it was'nae for the ^Gweavers, ^Amwhat would you ^Emdo Ya ^Fwould'nae hae ^Cclothes that's ^Fmade outta ^Gwool Ya ^Cwould'nae hae a ^Gcoat o' the ^Fblack or the ^Cblue If it was'nae for the work of the ^Gwea^Cvers
