Lyrics

There was three old gyspies came to our house door They came brave an boldly And the one sang high and the other sang low And the other sang a raggle-taggle gypsy-o It was upstairs, downstairs the lady went Put on her suits of leather-o And ther came a cry from around the door She's away with the raggle-taggle gypsy-o It was late that night when the lord came in Inquiring for his lady-o And the servant girl she says to the lord "She's away with the raggle-taggle gypsy-o" "Well, saddle for me my milk-with steed My big horse is not speedy-o And I will ride till I seek my bride She's away with the raggle-taggle gypsy-o" Well, he rode east, and he rode west, He rode north and south also Until he came to a wide-open field It was there that he spied his lady-o "Tell me, how could you leave your house and your land, How could you leave you money-o How could you leave your only wedded lord, All for a raggle-taggle gypsy-o? "Well, what care I for my house and my land, And what care I for my money-o? I'd rather have a kiss from the yellow gypsy's lips, I'm away with the raggle-taggle gipsy-o! " "How could you you leave your goose-feather bed, You blankets strewn so comely-o How could you leave your newly-wedded lord, All for a raggle-taggle gypsy-o?" "Well, what car I for my goose-feather bed, For my blankets strewn so comely-o? Tonights I lie in a wide-open field In the arms of raggle-taggle gypsy-o"
