The Raggle Taggle Gypsies～As I Roved Out～The Spanish Lady～The Wild Rover - 上野洋子
Three gypsies stood at the castle gate
They sang so high they sang so low
The lady sat in her chamber late
Her heart it melted away as snow
They sang so sweet they sang so shrill
That fast her tears began to flow
And she laid down her silken gown
Her golden rings and all her show
She pluck ed off her high heeled shoes
A made of Spanish leather O
She went in the street with her bare bare feet
All out in the wind and weather O
O saddle to me my milk white steed
And go and fetch my pony O
That I may ride and seek my bride
Who is gone with the raggle taggle gypsies O
And who are you me pretty fair maid
Who are you me honey
And who are you me pretty fair maid
Who are you me honey
She answered me quite modestly
I am me mothers darling
With me tooryay Fol de diddle day
Dire Fol de diddle dairie oh
And will you come to me mother's house
When the sun is shining clearly
And will you come to me mother's house
When the sun is shining clearly
I'll open the door and I'll let you in
And divil a one would hear us
With me tooryay Fol de diddle day
Dire Fol de diddle dairie oh
So I went to her house in the middle of the night
When the moon was shining clearly
So I went to her house in the middle of the night
When the moon was shining clearly
She opened the dor and she let me in
And divil the one did hear us
With me tooryay Fol de diddle day
Dire Fol de diddle dairie oh
As I went down to Dublin city
At the hour of twelve at night
Who should I see but a Spanish lady
Washing her feet by candle light
First she washed them then she dried them
Over a fire of amber coal
In all my life I ne'er did see
A maid so sweet about the soul
Whack fol the toora toora laddy
Whack fol the toora looralay
As I went back through Dublin city
As the sun began to set
Whe should I spy but the Spanish lady
Catching a moth in a golden net
When she saw me the she fled me
Lifting her petticoat over her knee
In all my life I ne'er did see
A maid so shy as the Spanish lady
Whack fol the toora toora laddy
Whack fol the toora looralay
Whack fol the toora toora laddy
Whack fol the toora looralay
Whack fol the toora toora laddy
Whack fol the toora looralay
I've been wild rover for many's the year
And I've spent all me money on whiskey and beer
But now I'm returning with gold in great store
And I never will play the wild rover no more
And it's No Nay Never No Nay Never No more
Will I play the wild rover No Never No more
I went to an alehouse I used to frequent
And I told the landlady my money was spent
I asked her for credit she answared me 'Ney
Such custom as yours could I have every day'
And it's No Nay Never No Nay Never No more
Will I play the wild rover No Never No more
I brought up from my pockets teh souverigns bright
And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
She said 'I have whiskeys and wines of the best
And the words that I told you were only in just'
And it's No Nay Never No Nay Never No more
Will I play the wild rover No Never No more
Will I play the wild rover No Never No more
