Vintage Friday: It’s Your Music 1962

The Gypsy Rover has been a favorite song of mine for many years. I used to have a 45 I played over and over. On You Tube is a version featuring the fine sounds of the Irish band The Clancy Brothers and compiled by FairyBeliever16. Enjoy this frolicking folk tune! I bet you’ll be humming it the livelong day.

  Cheers & Happy Reading!

This was, by far, my favorite moment of DB8. It’s been a few months, but I leave the tab open on my phone just so I can revisit it every few days…

A 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.

Ah-dee-doo-ah-dee-doo-dah-day

Ah-dee-doo-ah-dee-day-dee

He whistled and he sang 'til the green woods rang

And he won the heart of a lady.

She left her father's castle gate.

She left her own fine lover.

She left her servants and her state

To follow her gypsy rover.

She left behind her velvet gown

And shoes of Spanish leather

They whistled and they sang 'till the green woods rang

As they rode off together

Last night, she slept on a goose feather bed

With silken sheets for cover

Tonight she'll sleep on the cold, cold ground

Beside her gyspy lover

Her father saddled up his fastest stead

And roamed the valley all over.

Sought his daughter at great speed

And the whistlin' gypsy rover.

He came at last to a mansion fine

Down by the river Claydee.

And there was music and there was wine

For the gypsy and his lady.

"He is no gypsy, my Father," she cried

"but Lord of these lands all over.

And I shall stay 'til my dying day

with my whistlin' gypsy rover."
