It Was Only A Gypsy

• Bm

(intro Bm D, Bm A)
  Bm            A               D             Em
I am a handsome policeman, I am bold and versatile
   G                 A              D          G
My wife is white and beautiful with breasts of alabaster
Bm           A               D               Em
When I hurry home to her she whispers with a smile
     G            A               D
What did you do today my big blue hero?
G         Bm
There was only a gypsy
  G              A               D
A ragged, shaggy blackguard of a didicoi
G        Bm
Up to no good, I did what I should
         G            A             D      A  D      Bm D, Bm A
A little physical persuasion and he passed on by.
    Bm           A            D             Em
But now I grow impatient to enjoy her juicy beauty
  G                       A                D          G
I searched for the rising rhythms of those breasts of alabaster
Bm                 A                D            Em
No, she cries pray tell me what you did today on duty
G             A               D
Tell me more about this hairy gypsy.
G      Bm
It was only a gypsy
  G              A               D
A ragged, shaggy blackguard of a didicoi
G        Bm
Up to no good, I did what I should
         G           A              D      A  D    Bm D, Bm A
A little physical persuasion and he passed on by.
    Bm             A                 D               Em
But tell me pretty darling, will you tell me in your turn
    G                       A               D          G
Who placed those fresh wild flowers in your breasts of alabaster?
    Bm               A                      D              Em
And when you smile between your teeth still wedged do I discern
  G               A               D
A sprig of whisker from another?s moustache?
G      Bm
It was only a gypsy, she sighed
  G              A               D              
A ragged, shaggy blackguard of a didicoi
G        Bm
Up to no good, I did what I could
         G           A              D      A  D
A little physical persuasion and he passed on by.
G      Bm
It was only a gypsy boy
  G              A               D
A ragged, shaggy blackguard of a didicoi-i-i
G        Bm
Up to no good, I did what I could
         G           A              D      A  D
A little physical persuasion and he passed on by.
D
Between her breasts a hedgerow nosegay, in between her teeth a tell-tale whisker,
A                    D
The house is full of clothes pegs.
