1. |
There was three gypsies a-come to my door,
And downstairs ran this lady, O!
The first sang high and the second sang low,
And the third sang "Bonny, bonny Biscay O!"

2. |
It was late last night when my lord came home,
Inquiring for his a-lady, O!
The servants said on every hand,
"She's gone with the wraggle-taggle gypsies, O!" |
