Raggle Taggle Gipsies

Beltane

    Continues after the ad

    There were three gipsies came to my hall door
    And down stairs ran this lady-o
    There were one sang high and the other sang low
    And the other sang "Bonnie, Bonnie, Biscay-o"!

    They sang so sweet, they sang so shrill
    That fast her tears began to flow
    And she laid down her silken gown
    Her golden ring and all her show

    She plucked off her high heeled shoes
    A-made of spanish leather-o
    And she went to the street in her bare, bare feet
    All out in the wind and weather-o

    O-saddle to me my milk white steed
    And go and fetch my poney-o
    That I may ride and seek my bride
    Who is gone with the raggle taggle gipsies

    Continues after the ad

    And he rode high and he rode low
    He rode east and he rode west
    Until he came to an open field
    And there he spied his lady-o

    What made you live your house and land?
    Your golden treasures for to go
    What made you live your new wedded lord
    To follow the raggle taggle gipsies-o?

    What care I for my house and land?
    What care I for my treasure-o?
    What care I for my new wedded lord?
    I'm off with the raggle taggle gipsies-o!

    What made you live your goose feather bed
    With sheets turned down so bravely-o?
    Tonight you'll sleep in a cold open field
    Along with the raggle taggle gipsies-o?

    What care I for my goose feather bed
    With sheets turned down so bravely-o?
    Tonight I'll sleep in a cold open field
    Along with the raggle taggle gipsies-o!
