• Good Man's Wife

I've been loving you
Like a soldier in the peacetime waiting for the war
With my heart on the horizon and one eye on the door

I'd swallowed up my pride
And the tears that made my throat raw, conceded my defeat
When that sound came to my window so neat and so complete
Gypsy voices, singing
Dum...

Bought by a man with gold and silver and shoes, and a promise Thought I'd be a good man's wife and life would be complete
But the nights turned cold and the moon changed her face and my temper
And you looked right through me, like you never knew me

I've been loving you
Like the frosted trees of winter, waiting for the spring
But my heart was sweetly melted when first I heard him sing
Oh my dark eyed gypsy
Dum...

I kicked off my heels and I dressed in leather
And I straight ran down the stairs to my true love
He said “Will you go with me my darling one, my dearie?
And I swear Lord Cassilis will ne'er come near thee”

What care I for feather beds?
'll be sleeping in the fields for such a love as this
Let Lord Cassilis keep his money, I'll keep my gypsy's kiss
And his soft voice singing
Dum...
