| [00:12.768] |
There was a gypsy came over the land |
| [00:16.031] |
He sang so sweet and gaily |
| [00:22.306] |
He sang beneath the wild wood tree |
| [00:25.566] |
And charmed the great lord's lady |
| [00:31.819] |
The lord he did come home |
| [00:35.082] |
Enquiring for his lady |
| [00:38.096] |
"She's gone, she's gone," said the serving man |
| [00:41.665] |
"She's gone with the gypsy Davey." |
| [00:49.161] |
"Go saddle me my black mare |
| [00:52.675] |
The grey is ne'er so speedy |
| [00:58.200] |
And I'll ride all night and I'll ride all day |
| [01:01.213] |
Till I overtake my lady." |
| [01:07.535] |
He rode all by the riverside |
| [01:10.545] |
On the grass so wet and dewy |
| [01:13.306] |
And seated with her gypsy lad |
| [01:16.568] |
It's there he spied his lady |
| [01:31.631] |
"Would you forsake your house and home |
| [01:35.147] |
Would you forsake your baby? |
| [01:40.672] |
Would you forsake your own true love |
| [01:43.937] |
And the promises you gave me?" |
| [01:49.459] |
"What care I for my house and home |
| [01:53.226] |
Or even my wee baby? |
| [01:55.989] |
What care I for my own true love |
| [01:59.253] |
For I love the gypsy Davey." |
| [03:11.301] |
"Well it's fare thee well my dearest dear |
| [03:14.816] |
It's fare thee well forever |
| [03:20.087] |
And if you don't return with me |
| [03:23.603] |
I swear you'll see me never." |
| [03:32.391] |
And the lord he did go homeward |
| [03:36.156] |
And kissed his own wee baby |
| [03:39.166] |
And ere six months had passed away |
| [03:42.426] |
He'd married another lady |
