Subject: RE: BS: Don't let her get away !
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"
