1.

The Gypsy Daisy came riding o'er the plain,
He sang so loud and clearly,
He sang till he made the green woods ring,
And charmed the heart of a Lady.

Refrain

Red Lady dingo, dingo day,
Red Lady dingo, dingo Daisy;
Red Lady dingo, dingo day,
She's away with the Gypsy Daisy.

" Come saddle me my old brown hack,
The gray one is not so speedy,
I'll ride all day, and I'll ride all night,
Till I overtake my Lady. "

3.

He rode till he came to the riverside,
The waters flowed so freely,
The tears down his cheeks did flow,
And then he saw his Lady.

4.

" Could you forsake your house and home,
Could you forsake your baby,
Could you forsake your own wedded Lord,
And go with the Gypsy Daisy? "

5.

" Yes, I'll forsake my house and home,
Yes, I'll forsake my baby,
Yes I'll forsake my own wedded Lord,
And go with the Gypsy Daisy.

6.

" Last night I lay on a bed of down,
The Land Lord lay by me;
To-night I'll lay on the damp cold ground,
Along with the Gypsy Daisy. "
