Lyrics
WHISTLING GYPSY ROVER
The gypsy rover came over the hill,
bound through the valley so shady,
He whistled and sang till the green woods rang,
and he won the heart of the lady
She left her father's castle gate,
she left her own true lover
she left her servants and her estate
to follow the gypsy rover
CHORUS
Ah di do Ah di do ah day
Ah di do Ah di day dee
He whistled and he sang till the green woods rang
and he won the heart of the lady.
CHORUS
Her father saddled his fastest steed
roamed the valley all over
sought his daughter at great speed,
and the Whistling Gypsy Rover.
He came at last to a mansion fine
down by the river Plaidy
and there was music and there was wine
for the gypsy and his lady.
CHORUS
CHORUS
He's no gypsy my father, said she
my lord of free lands all over;
and I will stay to my dying day,
with my Whistling Gypsy Rover
CHORUS
CHORUS
He won the heart of the lady He won the heart of the lady
