Foster & Allen - The Gypsy Rover lyrics

The Gypsy Rover came over the hill Down through the valley so shady He whistled and he sang till the green woods rang And he won the heart of the lady Ah De Do... Ah De Do Da Day Ah De Do... Ah De De He whistled and he sang till the green woods rang And he won the heart of the lady She left her home, her castle great She left her fair young lover She left her servants, and her estate To follow the Gypsy Rover Ah De Do... Ah De Do Da Day Ah De Do... Ah De De He whistled and he sang till the green woods rang And he won the heart of the lady Her father saddled up his fastest steed Roamed the valleys all over Sought his daughter at great speed And the whistlin' Gypsy Rover Ah De Do... Ah De Do Da Day Ah De Do... Ah De De He whistled and he sang till the green woods rang And he won the heart of the lady He came unto a mansion fine Down by the river Claydee And there was music and there was wine For the Gypsy and his lady Ah De Do... Ah De Do Da Day Ah De Do... Ah De De He whistled and he sang till the green woods rang And he won the heart of the lady He is no Gypsy, father dear But lord of these lands all over And I shall stay 'til my dying day With my whistlin' Gypsy Rover Ah De Do... Ah De Do Da Day Ah De Do... Ah De De He whistled and he sang till the green woods rang And he won the heart of the lady
