The Gypsy Rover by The Wiggles Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1992

[Verse 1]
The gypsy rover came over the hill
Down through the valley so shady
He whistled and he sang 'til the green woods rang
And he won the heart of a lady

[Chorus]
Ardy-doo-ardy-doo-ar-day
Ardy-doo-ardy-day-dee
He whistled and he sang 'til the green woods rang
And he won the heart of a lady

[Verse 2]
She left her father, his castle gate
She left her own fond lover
She left her servants and estate
To follow the gypsy rover

[Chorus]
Ardy-doo-ardy-doo-dar-day
Ardy-doo-ardy-day-dee
He whistled and he sang 'til the green woods rang
And he won the heart of a lady
[Verse 3]
Her father saddled up his steed
Roamed the valleys all over
Sought his daughter at great speed
And the whistlin' gypsy rover

[Chorus]
Ardy-doo-ardy-doo-dar-day
Ardy-doo-ardy-day-dee
He whistled and he sang 'til the green woods rang
And he won the heart of a lady

[Verse 4]
He came unto a mansion fine
Down by the River Clady
And there was music and there was wine
For the gypsy and his lady

[Chorus]
Ardy-doo-ardy-doo-ar-day
Ardy-doo-ardy-day-dee
He whistled and he sang 'til the green woods rang
And he won the heart of a lady

[Verse 5]
"He is 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!"
[Chorus]
Ardy-doo-ardy-doo-dar-day
Ardy-doo-ardy-day-dee
He whistled and he sang 'til the green woods rang
And he won the heart of a lady
