The Raggle Taggle Gipsy - Carlos Núñez

Written by：Traditional

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 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
