You also indicated looking for a second song "well, whiskey is the right of man". This is the first line of the song "Whiskey O", or also called "John, Rise Her Up". (Actually, it's whiskey is the life of man...)

Are we not dealing with at least a close relative of:

I'm a weaver, a carleton weaver
I'm a rash and a rovin' blade.
I've got silver in my pockets.
I'll go and follow the rovin' trade

As I walked out in Glascow city
Nancy whiskey I chanced to smell
I went in, sat down beside her,
For seven years I loved her well.

The more I kissed her the more I loved her.
The more I kissed her the more she smiled....(etc)

If this is what you are after I'll give you the rest of the words.
