(E. Pugh)
Oh-oo the magpie`s calling
The farmer has had a child
Will it live or will it die
Only this bird will tell
Oh-oo the magpie`s calling
One for death
Two for love
Three for the gypsy`s journey
Never to be done
One - Two come the magpies calls
On Jonny`s wedding day
But on the bed of old Caradoc
There was only to be one
Oh-oo the magpie`s calling
One for death
Two for love
Three for the gypsy`s journey
Never to be done
