Gypsy Rover

The gypsy rover came over the hill

Down through the valley so shady

He whistled and he sang 'til the green woods rang

And he won the heart of a lady.



Chorus:

Auh-de-doo-auh-de-doo-dah-day

Auh-de-doo-auh-de-day-dee

He whistled and he sang 'til the green woods rang

And he won the heart of a lady.



She left her father's castle gate

She left her own true lover

She left her family and her estate

To follow her gypsy rover.



Chorus:

Auh-de-doo-auh-de-doo-dah-day

Auh-de-doo-auh-de-day-dee

He whistled and he sang 'til the green woods rang

And he won the heart of a lady.



Her father saddled up his fastest steed

To ride the valley over

He sought his daughter at great speed

And her whistling gypsy rover.



At last he came to a mansion fine

Down by the River Clady

And there was music and there was wine

For the gypsy and his lady.



Chorus:

Auh-de-doo-auh-de-doo-dah-day

Auh-de-doo-auh-de-day-dee

He whistled and he sang 'til the green woods rang

And he won the heart of a lady.



He is no gypsy my father she said

But Lord of these lands all over

And here I'll stay 'til my dying day

With my whistling gypsy rover.



Chorus:

Auh-de-doo-auh-de-doo-dah-day

Auh-de-doo-auh-de-day-dee

He whistled and he sang 'til the green woods rang

And he won the heart of a lady.



Chorus:

Auh-de-doo-auh-de-doo-dah-day

Auh-de-doo-auh-de-day-dee

He whistled and he sang 'til the green woods rang

And he won the heart of a lady...
