The Whistling Gypsy

Chorus:
Ah dee do ah dee do da day, ah dee do ah dee day dee, He whistled and he sang till the green woods rang. And he won the heart of a lady.
The whistling gypsy came over the hill Down through the valley so shady, He whistled and he sang till the green woods rang, And he won the heart of a lady.
Chorus:
She left her father's castle gate, Left her own true lover, Left her servants and her estate, To follow the gypsy rover.
Chorus:
Her father saddled his fastest steed, He ranged the valley all over, He searched for his daughter at great speed, And her whistling gypsy rover.
Chorus:
At last he came to a mansion fine Down by the river Clady, 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. I'm going to stay till my dying day With my whistling gypsy rover."
