Oh yes sir, oh kind sir, please give to me your hand
It's you that have fine fortune, both houses and good land
The fairer girls are dainty, but you must cast them by
For I am the gypsy girl who is to be your bride
who is to be your bride, who is to be your bride
I am the gypsy girl who is to be your bride

He took me to his castle, there were carpets on the floor
And servants there a-waiting for to open ev'ry door
There were ladies there of honor and the music it did play
And all were there to celebrate the gypsy's wedding day.

So it's farewell to the gypsy life, to campin' on the green
No more with my brothers and my sisters will I be seen
Oh, once I was a gypsy girl but now I'm a squire's bride
With servants for to wait on me and in my carriage ride.
while in my carriage ride, while in my carriage ride
with servants to wait on me and in my carriage ride
