Raggle Taggle Gypsies (Lyrics)
Three Gypsies sat at the castle gate
They sang so high and they sang so low
The lady sat in her chamber laid
And her heart it melted away like snow
They sang so sweet they sang so shrill
That fast her heart began to yeald
And she laid down her silken gown
Her golden rings and all her show
She took them off her high healed shoes
Made of spanish leather-o
And she danced in the street
In her bare bare feet
All out in the wind and weather-o
Saddle to me my great white steed
And go and fetch me my money-o
And I I shall ride and seek my bride
Who’s gone with the rage tangle gypsies-o
He rode high and he rode low
He rode through woods and copses too
Until he came to an open field
And there he aspied his lady-o
What makes you leave your house and land
Your golden treasures for to go
And what makes you leave your new wedded lord
To follow the raggle taggle gypsies-o
What care I for my house and land
What care I for my treasures-o
What care I for my new wedded lord
To follow the raggle taggle gypsies-o
Last night you slept on a goose feather bed
With the sheets turned down so bravely-o
Oh tonight you shall sleep in a cold open field
Along with the raggle taggle gypsies-o
What care I for a goose feather bed
With the sheets turned down so bravely oh
For tonight I shall sleep in a cold open field
Along with the raggle taggle gypsies-o
