Lyrics
The whistling Gypsy came over the hill
Down through the valley so shady
He whistled, and he sang, 'til the greenwoods rang
And he won the heart of a lady
A dee do, a dee do die day
A dee do a dee day
He whistled and he sang 'til the greenwoods rang
And he won the heart of a lady
She left her father's castle gate
She left her own found lover
She left her servants, and her estate
To follow the gypsy rover
A dee do, a dee do die day
A dee do a dee day
He whistled and he sang 'til the greenwoods rang
And he won the heart of a lady
"He is no gypsy, my father", she said
But lord of these lands all over
With him, I'll shall stay 'til my dying day
And follow the gypsy rover
A dee do, a dee do die day
A dee do a dee day
He whistled and he sang 'til the greenwoods 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, 'til the greenwoods rang
And he won the heart of a lady
A dee do, a dee do die day
A dee do a dee day
He whistled and he sang 'til the greenwoods rang
And he won the heart of a lady
