Nancy Johnson, s[C]he's my darling she's my every waking thought [G][C]
How she greets me when she meets me [D]when my ship gets [G]in to port
[C]All the Gosport ladies, they [D]do the best they [G]can, but if you're
[C]Making a bed for a [F]sailor's head there's [C]none like [G]my girl [C]Nan.
Gosport girls can drink for England Gosport girls, they [G]goes their [C]tot!
Rum and brandy, gin and shandy [D]Gosport girls will [G]drink the lot!
[C]All the Gosport ladies they [D]swig the flowing [G]can but for
[C]Knocking it back with [F]Honest Jack there's [C]none like [G]my girl [C]Nan.
CHORUS:
Oh Nancy [G]can't you see [Am]you're the only [C]girl for me!
How I dream of [F]lovely Nancy [C]when I'm sailing [G]on the [C]sea.
Gosport girls,they're good at dancing they're the best,there [G]is no [C]doubt.
When the music sets them prancing [D]how they'll fling their [G]skirts about!
[C]All the Gosport ladies they [D]do the French [G]Can-Can
[C]But for real high kicks and [F]fancy tricks there's [C]none like [G]my girl [C]Nan.
CHORUS
Nancy Johnson keeps a bar-room where the boys can [G]take their [C]ease
She will wake me and she'll shake me [D]she will do whatever she [G]please.
[C]All the Gosport ladies they [D]do the best they [G]can but for
[C]Making a bed for a [F]sailor's head there's [C]none like [G]my girl [C]Nan
