Paddy Goes To Holyhead - The Gipsies' Wedding Day lyrics

Once there was a wedding on the 3rd of December Relatives from far and near they came along that way An old gipsy talked to them and said: "Will you remember All you ever wanted is a Gipsies′ Wedding Day" [chorus:] Dance, dance, dance, around the hillside Dance, dance, dance, so let the music play Dance, dance, dance, around till midnight On the Gipsies′ Wedding Day The bridegroom he was drunken but it was not his first job The bride was young and pretty, she was dressed in red and grey She said: "I bought my wedding-dress inside a second-hand-shop All we ever wanted is a Gipsies′ Wedding Day" [chorus] The band was just fantastic and the fiddle played an old air Someone brought the drinks, on stage the singer cried: "Hooray" They′ve won some music-festivals in everywhere and somewhere All they ever wanted is a Gipsies′ Wedding Day [chorus] And ev′ry year I think of you my little Gipsie rover I drink on every Gipsie and I let the past go by I listen to the music and before my time is over All I ever wanted is a Gipsies′ Wedding Day [chorus]
