Gypsy Rover Chorus Ah-di-do, ah-di-do-da-day Ah-di-do, ah-di-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 true lover She left her servants and her estates To follow the gypsy rover. Her father saddled his fastest steed And roamed the valleys all over He searched for his daughter at great speed And the whistlin' gypsy rover. He came at last to a mansion fine Down by the river Clady And there was music, and there was wine For the gypsy and his lady. He's no gypsy, my Father, she said, But Lord of these lands all over And I will stay 'til my dyin' day With my whistlin' gypsy rover. |
