There were three old gypsies came to our hall door They came brave and boldly-o One sang high and the other sang low And the Lady sang the raggle taggle gypsy-o It was upstairs and downstairs the lady went Put on her suit of leather-o T'was a cry all around the door She's away wi' the raggle taggle gypsy-o It was late at night when the lord came in Enquiring for his lady-o The servant girl replied to her lord She's away wi' the raggle taggle gypsy-o Oh then saddle for me and my milk white steed My big horse is not speedy-o I will ride and I'll seek my bride She's away wi' the raggle taggle gypsy-o Then he rode east and he rode west He rode north and south also But when he went to the open fields It was there that he spied his lady-o
