Go saddle me up my buckskin horse
And a hundred dollar saddle
Point out to me their wagon tracks
And after them I`ll travel, After them I`ll ride
3.
Well I had not rode to the midnight moon
When I saw their campfire geaming
I heard the notes of the big guitar
And the voice of the Gypsies singing
That song of the Gypsy Dave
4.
There in the light by the camping fire
I saw her fair face beaming
Her heart in tune to the big guitar
And the voice of the Gypsies singing
That song of the Gypsy Dave
5.
Have you forsaken your house and home?
Have you forsaken your baby?
Have you forsaken your husband dear?
To go with the Gypsy Davy
And sing with the Gypsy Davy
That song of the Gypsy Dave
6.
Yes I`ve forsaken my husband dear
To go with the Gypsy Davy
And I`ve forsaken my mansion high
But not my blue eyed baby
Not my blue eyed babe
7.
She smiled to leave her husband dear
And go with the Gypsy Davy
But the tears came trickling down her cheeks
To think of her blue eyed baby
Pretty little blue eyed babe
8.
Take off, take off your buckskin gloves
Made of Spanish leather
Give to me your lily white hand
And we`ll ride home together
Home together we`ll ride
9.
No I won`t take off my buckskin gloves
They`re made of Spanish leather
I`ll go my way from day to day
And sing with the Gypsy Davy
That song of the Gypay Davy
That song of the Gypsy Davy
That song of the Gypsy Dave
