MartinNail Lyr Req: The Gypsy's Wedding Day (15) RE: Lyr Req: The Gypsy's Wedding Day 25 Jun 20

Joe, there are lots of versions of this song of course but this looks to me very like the one collected from Louise Holmes of Dinedor in Herefordshire by Peter Kennedy and published his Folksongs of Britain & Ireland. Quite a few people such as Shirley Collins learnt it from a BBC recording of her. All you need to fill in the rest of the chain of transmission!
