"Gipsy Rover" lyrics

Jools Holland & Marc Almond Lyrics

"Gipsy Rover"

Sing, sing, sing, a wandering wind
Turn those ambers over
My love has a house with an apple tree
But I'm a gipsy rover

I met you, love, on Michaelmas day
I swore I'd never leave you
On Saturday I was in your arms
On Sunday I deceived you

Oh, will you pluck my apples ripe?
Oh, will you plough my furrow?
I cannot stay another day
I must away tomorrow

Sing, sing, sing, a wandering wind
And turn those ambers over
My love has a house with an apple tree
But I'm a gipsy rover

The moonlight lay across the fields
The flockin' birds were sleeping
And the only sound all in the land
Was the sound of my love weeping

Oh, when the honeysuckle blows
And the bees hunt in the clover
I sometimes dream of apple trees
But I'm a gipsy rover

Sing, sing, sing, a wandering wind
And turn those ambers over
My love has a house with an apple tree
But I'm a gipsy rover

And when the frost is biting hard
And the wild geese flying over
I sometimes dream of my love's arms
But I'm a gipsy rover

(Sing, sing, sing, a wanderin' wind)
(Turn those ambers over)
(My love has a house with an apple tree)
(But I'm a gipsy rover)

Sing, sing, sing, a wandering wind
Will turn those ambers over
My love has a house with an apple tree
But I'm a gipsy rover
