| T | hey came b | rave and b | oldly-o. |
| Am | Em | F | |
| And | one sang high and the | other sang | low |
| Am | G | Am | |
| And the | other sang a raggle taggle | gypsy | -o. |
| It was upstairs, downstairs the lady went, |
| Put on her suit of leather-o, |
| And it was the cry all around her door; |
| "She's away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o" |
| It was late that night when 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 gypsy-o" |
| "Then saddle for me my milk-white steed |
| Me big horse is not speedy-o |
| And I will ride and I'll seek me bride, |
| She's away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o" |
| He rode east and he rode west |
| He rode north and south also, |
| And when he rode to the wide open field |
| It was there that he spied his lady-o. |
| "Arra, why did you leave your house and your land, |
| Why did you leave your money-o? |
| Why did you leave your only wedded lord |
| All for the raggle taggle gypsy-o?" |
| "Yerra what do I care for me house and me land? |
| What do I care for money-o? |
| What do I care for me only wedded lord? |
| I'm away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o" |
| "It was there last night you'd a goose feather bed, |
| Blankets drawn so comely-o. |
| But tonight you lie in a wide open field |
| In the arms of the raggle taggle gypsy-o" |
| "Yerra, what do I care for me goose feather bed? |
| Yerra, what do I care for blankets-o? |
| What do I care for me only wedded lord? |
| I'm away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o" |
| "Oh, for you rode east when I rode west, |
| You rode high and I rode low. |
| I'd rather have a kiss of the yellow gypsy's lips |
| Than all the cash and money-o" |
| hope you enjoy it. |
