The Raggle Taggle Gypsies

Three gypsies stood at the castle door
One sang high, and the others sang low
They sang so bright and cheerie-O
The lady's heart did melt as snow.

She plucked off her high-heeled shoes
Amade of Spanish leather-O
She ran into the street with her bare bare feet
To follow the raggle-taggle gypsies-O.

It was late that night though the lord came in
Enquiring for his lady-O
And the servant girl’s reply to him was:
"She's away with the raggle-taggle gypsies-O".

"Saddle me my milk-white steed
Saddle me my pony-O
That I may ride and find my bride
Who's away with the raggle-taggle gypsies-O".

He rode east, he rode west
He rode north and south also
Until he came unto an open field
It was there that he spied his lady-O.

"Why did you leave your houses and your lands?
Why did you leave your treasure-O?
Why did you leave your newly wedded lord
To follow the raggle-taggle gypsies-O?"
