Gypsy Davy

Rich man, he came home one day Looking for his lady Servants told him one and all She's gone with the Gypsy Davy Said, "Saddle up my horse for me Dig me another grave Ride all day and I'll ride all night To get to Gypsy Davy" He rode to the east, and he rode to the west 'Til at last he found her Lying on a mossy bank With the gypsy's arms around her Will you come home with me right now? Come home and see your baby I'll forget that you ever rode Away with the Gypsy Davy "I won't home again with you", she said "I don't want to see my baby I want to roam this world around Be with the Gypsy Davy" Soon, this lady changed her mind Her dress and coat just faded Shoes they'd walked 'til they wore right off She lost old Gypsy Davy What became of the rich man's wife? I think it's worth relating Gypsy found another girl And he left her heart a-breaking Gypsy ran, he ran away Left her heart a-breaking Whistle and sang 'til the green wood rang And he won the heart of the lady Whistle and sang 'til the green wood rang Away went the Gypsy Davy Whistle and sang 'til the green wood rang Away went a black jack Davy Whistle and sang 'til the green wood rang Away went Gypsy Davy Whistle and sang 'til the green wood rang And away went black jack Davy Away went Gypsy Davy Away went the black jack Davy Away went the black jack Davy
