C                     F        C
Three gypsies cam tae oor hall door
C               F      C
O but they sang bonnie-O
C                      F      C
They sang sae neat and sae complete
C                              F    C
That they stole the hairt o' a lady-O

[Verse 2]
C                    F        C
And she cam trippin' doon the stairs
C             F       C
Maidens twa afore her-O
C                   F           C
When they spied her weel-faured face
C                          F        C
They cast their spells oot-owre her-O

[Verse 3]
C                        F           C
And she's kicked off her high-heeled schoon
C               F       C
Made of Spanish leather-O
C                   F            C
Awa' she's gone wi' young Johnny Faa
C                        F       C
Across the rocks and the heather-O

[Verse 4]
C                       F          C
Lord Cashel (?) he came hame at e'en
C                F    C
Spierin' for his lady-O
C                      F      C
The maid she cried and she replied:
C                        F       C
She's awa' wi' the gypsy laddies-O!

[Verse 5]
C                    F            C
Gae saddle to me the bonny, bonny black
C                          F      C
For the broon was ne'er so speedy-O
C                  F     C
When he cam to the water side
C                        F    C
He spied his weel-faured lady-O

[Verse 6]
C                      F            C
Will you come home, my honey and my heart?
C                      F    C
Will you come home, my lady-O?
C                        F               C
Would ye forsake a' your hooses and your land
C                           F       C
Your lord and your fine wee bairnie-O?

[Verse 7]
C                     F            C
Last night I lay in a fine feather-bed
C                      F    C
Sheets and blankets so cosy-O
C                          F          C
This nicht I'll lie in the cauld clay haugh
C                      F     C
Rowed in the arms o' a gypsy-O
