It's a fake, or at least the press mentions are...
But even so:
There were three Yellow gypsies came to our door. They came brave and boldly-o. And one sang high and the other sang low And the other sang a raggle taggle gypsy-o.
It was upstairs, downstairs the lady went, Put on her all her clothes o, And it was the cry all around her door; "She's away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o"
It was late that night when the lord came in, Inquiring for his lady-o, And the servant girl's reply to him was; "She's away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o"
"Then saddle for me my milk-white steed And bring to me my tracker, And I will ride and I'll seek me bride, She's away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o"
He rode east and he rode west He rode north and south also, And when he used his GPS It was there that he spied his lady-o.
"Yerra, why did you leave your house and your land, Why did you leave your money-o? Why did you leave your only wedded lord All for the raggle taggle gypsy-o?"
"Yerra what do I care for me house and me land? What do I care for money-o? How did you find me a-lying here? I'm away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o"
"You've gone and left you house and home, You've gone and left you baby; But tonight, I'd not you found, If it wasn't for you panties-o"
