Lyrics:

There were three old gypsies; came to our hall door

They came brave and bold-ee-oh

And there's one sang high and the other sang low

And the lady sang the Raggle Taggle gypsie-oh

It was upstairs and downstairs the Lady went

Put on her suit of leather-oh

It was the cry all around the door

She's away with the Raggle Taggle Gypsie-oh

It was late that night when the Lord came in

Inquiring for his Lady-oh

The servant girl she replied to the Lord

She's away with the Raggle Taggle Gypsie-oh

Oh then saddle for me

Me' milk-white steed

Me' big horse is not speedy-oh

Tonight I'll ride to the wide open field and it's there that I'll spy my Lady-oh

So he rode east.

He rode west

He rode North and south also

It was when he rode to the wide open field

It was there that he spied his Lady-oh

Oh why did you leave your house and your land

Why did you leave your money-oh

And why did you leave your only wedded Lord

To be off with the Raggle Taggle Gypsy-oh

What do I care for me house and me land

What do I care for money-oh

And what do I care for me only wedded Lord

I'm away with the Raggle Taggle Gyspy-oh

Last night you slept in a goose-feather bed

The blankets drawn so comely-oh

Tonight you'll lie in the wide open field

In the arms of the Raggle Taggle Gypsy-oh

You're a - What do I care for a goose-feather bed

What do I care for blankets-oh

And you're a - What do I care for me only wedded Lord

I'm away with the Raggle Taggle Gypsy-oh

So he rode east,

She rode west

He rode high and I rode low

Well I'd rather have a kiss of a yello Gypsy's lips

Than all of your cash and your money-oh

There were three old gypsies came to our hall door

They came brave and bold-ee-oh

And there's one sang high and the other sang low

And the lady sang the Raggle Taggle gypsie-oh

If someone could make a tab of the instrumental in the background for ukulele I would be very grateful. The tuning I use is GCEA.

Wish the irish and the scotts would stop going on about who the song belongs to , as most geogios dont like travelers only this song and if it happened to their woman folk they would hate the song, ps l know l was the moden day version of that raggle taggle gypsy o,

When this happens in real life l ask what makes the lady do it? Why do they think they can live this life, do they think its romantic, are they sick of their other half? Possibly that,,,,,,or do they only want a bit of rough,,,,,,, but then why should we complain,its great xxxxx

If you like this song, listen to "Rox in the Box" by the Decemberists. It has got the same upbeat tune:)

I'm an Aussie and I don't care if anyone thinks Waltzing Matilda is Irish just because the Pogues played it. There are numerous American traditional songs that actually originated in Ireland and Scotland. Most people listen to and play music to enjoy it we shouldn't get so hung up on factors that are external to it.
