There were three old gypsies came to our house door. They came brave and boldy-o
         D5                               E5           E5            D5           B5    E5  
And the one sang high and the other sang low. And the other sang a raggle taggle gypsy-o
 
          E5                                                   B5  
It was upstairs, downstairs the lady went. Put on her suit of leather-o
        D5                           E5          E5             D5            B5    E5  
And there was a cry from around the door. She's away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o

It was late that night when the lord came in. Inquiring for his lady-o
        D5                            E5            E5          D5              B5    E5  
And the servant girl she says to the lord. "She's away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o"

        E5                                                     B5  
"Well, saddle for me my milk-white steed. My big horse is not speedy-o
    D5                          E5            E5           D5             B5    E5

Well, he rode east, and he rode west, He rode north and south also  
         D5                   E5             E5            D5        B5   E5  
Until he came to a wide-open field. It was there that he spied his lady-o
          E5                                                                  B5  
"Tell me, how could you leave your goosefeather bed, your blankets strewn so comely-o
 D5                                    E5    E5       D5              B5    E5  
How could you leave your newly-wedded lord, All for a raggle taggle gypsy-o?"

        E5                                                              B5  
"Well, what care I for my goose-feather bed, For my blankets strewn so comely-o?
  D5                           E5           E5        D5             B5     E5  
Tonight I lie in a wide-open field. In the arms of a raggle taggle gypsy-o"

"Tell me, how could you leave your house and your land, How could you leave your money-o

How could you leave your only wedded lord, All for a raggle taggle gypsy-o?"

     D5                           E5                     
I'd rather have a kiss from the yellow gypsy's lips,

I'm away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o!"
