Whistling Gypsy

歌詞

The whistling gypsy came over the hill. Down through the valley so shady. He whistled and he sang till the green wood rang And he won the heart of a lady. Ah dee du, ah dee du dai day. Ah dee du, ah dee day oh. He whistled and he sang till the green wood rang And he won the heart of a lady. She left her father's castle gate. She left her fair young lover. She left her servants and her state To follow the gypsy rover. Ah dee du, ah dee du dai day. Ah dee du, ah dee day oh. He whistled and he sang till the green wood rang And he won the heart of a lady. She left behind her velvet gown, And shoes of spanish leather They whistled and they sang till the green wood rang As they rode off together. Last night she slept on a goose feather bed, With silken sheets for cover Tonight she sleeps on the cold cold ground, Beside her gypsy lover Ah dee du, ah dee du dai day. Ah dee du, ah dee day oh. He whistled and he sang till the green wood rang And he won the heart of a lady. He won the heart of a lady He won the heart of a lady Her father saddled up his fastest steed and searched these lands all over ...at great speed For the whistling gypsy rover... He is no gypsy my father she said, But lord of these lands all over, And I will stay 'til my dying day With my whistling gypsy rover.
