Ralph Hodgson - The Gypsy Girl

Ralph Hodgson - The Gypsy Girl

'Come, try your skill, kind gentlemen, br A penny for three tries!' br Some threw and lost, some threw and won br A ten-a-penny prize. br br She was a tawny gypsy girl, br A girl of twenty years, br I liked her for the lumps of gold br That jingled from her ears; br br I liked the flaring yellow scarf br Bound loose about her throat, br I liked her showy purple gown br And flashy velvet coat.
