The Raggle Taggle Gypsy Lyrics - Room To Roam - Waterboys

(Traditional) 

There were three old gypsies came to our hall door 

they came brave and boldly-o 

And one sang high and the other sang low 

and the other sang a raggle taggle gypsy-o 

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 wi' 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 wi' the raggle taggle gypsy-o"

"Then saddle for me my milk white steed 

- my big horse is not speedy-o 

And I will ride till I seek my bride 

she's away wi' the raggle taggle gypsy-o" 

Now he rode East and he rode West 

he rode North and South also 

Until he came to a wide open plain 

it was there that he spied his lady-o 

"How could you leave your goose feather bed 

your blankeys strewn so comely-o? 

And how could you leave your newly wedded Lord 

all for a raggle taggle gypsy-o?" 

"What care I for my goose feather bed 

wi' blankets strewn so comely-o? 

Tonight I lie in a wide open field 

in the arms of a 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 only wedded Lord 

all for a raggle taggle gypsy-o?" 

"What care I for my house and my land? 

what care I for my money-o? 

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

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