• Seven Yello Gipsies

There were seven yellow gypsies and all in a row,
None of them lame nor lazy-O,
And they sang so neat and so complete
They stole the heart of the lady-O.

It was late that night when the lord came home
Enquiring for his lady-O,
And the answer the servants gave to him,
She's gone away with the seven yellow gypsies-O.

Then saddle me my bonny black horse,
The white one's ne'er so speedy-O.
That I may ride on a long summer night
In search of my false lady-O

So he rode west and he rode west,
He rode through wood and copses too,
Until he came to an open field
And there he saw his lady-O.

Would you give up your house and land?
Would you give up your baby-O?
Would you give up your new-wedded lord?
To run away with the seven yellow gypsies-O?

Well, what care I for my house and land?
What care I for my baby-O?
Sure I wouldn't give a kiss from a gipsy laddie's lips
Not for all Lord Cassilis' money-O.
