           Ami   G     Ami                 G    Ami 
There were three young gypsies come to our hall door, 
          G         Emi    Ami 
They came brave and boldly-o 
    G        Ami          G          Ami 
And one sang high and the other sang low, 
(G)     Ami            G             Ami G Ami 
And the other sang the Raggle Taggle Gypsy-o 
 
Well it was upstairs downstairs the lady went 
Put on her suit of leather-o 
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, 
Enquiring for his Lady-o 
And the servant girl she said to the Lord, 
She's away with the Raggle Taggle Gypsy-o 
 
Then saddle for me my milk-white steed, 
My big horse is not speedy-o, 
Tonight I'll ride, to seek my bride, 
She's away with the Raggle Taggle Gypsy-o 
 
Well he rode east, and he rode west, 
He rode north and south also, 
Until he came to a wide open plane, 
That's where he spied his Lady-o. 
 
Ami 
How could you leave your house and your land? 
                         Emi 
How could you leave your money-o? 
G 
How could you leave your newly-wedded Lord, 
                          Ami 
All for the Raggle Taggle Gypsy-o? 
 
     Ami 
Well what care I for my house and my land? 
          G        Emi 
What do I care for money-o? 
    G             Ami         G             Ami 
I'd rather have a kiss from a yellow gypsy's lips, 
                  Emi           G    Ami 
I'm away with the Raggle Taggle Gypsy-o 
 
How could you leave your house and your land? 
How could you leave your money-o? 
How could you leave your newly-wedded Lord, 
All for the Raggle Taggle Gypsy-o? 
 
Well what care I for my house and my land? 
What do I care for money-o? 
Tonight I'll lie in a wide open field, 
In the arms of my Raggle Taggle Gypsy-o
