Planxty - Raggle Taggle Gypsy & Tabhair Dom Do Lámh

Planxty is an Irish folk music band consisting initially of Christy Moore (vocals, acoustic guitar, bodhrán), Andy Irvine (vocals, mandolin, mandola, bouzouki, hurdy-gurdy, harmonica), Dónal Lunny (bouzouki, guitars), and Liam O'Flynn (uilleann pipes, tin whistle).

They quickly revolutionized and popularized Irish folk music, touring and recording to great acclaim.

Lyrics :

And there were three old gypsies came to our hall door.
They came brave and boldly-o,
one sang high and the other sang low,
And the lady sang the Raggle-Taggle Gypsy-o.

Upstairs downstairs the lady went,
Put on her suit of leather-o.
It was the cry all around the door,
"She's away with the Raggle-Taggle Gypsy-o."

She gave the gam a glass of wine
And she gave the dem some brandy
And the fine gold ring that the lady wore
She gave it to the Raggle-Taggle Gypsy-o.

late that night of the lord came in,
Inquiring for his lady-o.
And the servant girls she replied to him lord,
"She's away with the Raggle-Taggle Gypsy-o."

Saddle for me, me milk white steed.
Me big horse is not speedy-o.
I will ride and retrieve me bride,
"She's away with the Raggle-Taggle Gypsy-o."

So he rode east and he rode west.
He rode north and south also,
But when he rode to the wide-open field
It was there that he spied his lady-o.

"Wwhy did you leave your house and your land?
Why did you leave your money-o?
Why did you leave your only wedded lord
All fer the Raggle-Taggle Gypsy-o?"

"Yerra, what do I care for me house and me land?
What do I care for money-o??
Yerra what do I care for my only wedded lord??
I'm away with the Raggle-Taggle Gypsy-o."

It was there Last night you slept in a goose-feather bed
With blankets drawn so comely-o.
Tonight you'll lie in a wide-open field
In the arms of a Raggle-Taggle Gypsy-o."

"Yerra, what do I care for a goose-feather bed?
What do I care for blankets-o?
For tonight I'll lie in a wide-open field
in the arms of me Raggle-Taggle Gypsy-o."

So he rode east and she rode west.
He rode high when and I rode low.
"I'd rather have a kiss of the yellow Gypsy's lips
Than all of your gold and silver-o."
