On the Gipsies' Wedding Day Songtext

von Paddy Goes To Holyhead

Once there was a wedding on the 3rd of December
Relatives from far and near they came along that way
An old gipsy talked to them and said: "Will you remember
All you ever wanted is a Gipsies' Wedding Day"

The bridegroom he was drunken but it was not his first job
The bride was young and pretty, she was dressed in red and grey
She said: "I bought my wedding-dress inside a second-hand-shop
All we ever wanted is a Gipsies' Wedding Day"

The band was just fantastic and the fiddle played and old air
Someone brought the drinks, on stage the singer cried: "Hooray"
They've won some music-festivals in everywhere nad somewhere
All they ever wanted is a Gipsies' Wedding Day
And ev'ry year I think of you my little Gipsie rover
I drink on every Gipsie and I let the past go by
I listen to the music and before my time is over
All I ever wanted is a Gipsies' Wedding Day
Dance, dance, dance, around the hillside
Dance, dance, dance, so let the music play
Dance, dance, dance, around till midnight
On the Gipsies' Wedding Day
