shirley collins – seven yellow gipsies lyrics
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 gypsy laddie’s lips
not for all lord cassilis’ money+o”
