Gypsy Rover lyrics

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 servants and her estate

To follow her gypsy rover

Chorus

Her father mounted his fastest steed

And ranged the valley over

He sought his daughter at great speed

And her whistling gypsy rover

Chorus

At last he came to a masion fine

Down by the River Clady

And there was music and there was wine

For the gypsy and his lady.

Chorus

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
