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
Ah dee du, ah dee du da day
Ah dee du, ah dee 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
Left her own fond lover
Left her servants and her estate
To follow the gypsy rover
Ah dee du, ah dee du da day
Ah dee du, ah dee day dee
He whistled and he sang
'Til the green woods rang
And he won the heart of a lady
Her father saddled his fastest steed
Searched these valleys all over
Seeking his daughter
At great speed and the whistlin' gypsy rover
At last he came to a castle gate
Along the river Claydee
And there was music and there was wine
For the gypsy and his lady
Ah dee du, ah dee du da day
Ah dee du, ah dee 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 a lord of these lands all over
And I will stay 'til my dying day
With the whistlin' gypsy rover
Ah dee du, ah dee du da day
Ah dee du, ah dee day dee
He whistled and he sang
'Til the green woods rang
And he won the heart of a lady
