It was late last night 
         A         E
when the boss come home,
        A        E
asking about his lady
                A           E
The only answer that he got was,
      A                   E
she's gone with the Gypsy Davey,
A                   E
gone with the Gypsy Dave
 
   E               A        E
Go saddle me up my buckskin home,
               A      E
and my hundred dollar saddle
                      A     E
Point out to me their wagon tracks,
    A               E       
and after them I'll travel, 
    A               E
and after them I'll ride
 
        E                      A        E
Well, I had not rode 'till the midnight moon,
            A        E
I saw their campfire gleaming
                         A   E
I heard the notes of the big guitar,
        A                    E
and the voice of the Gypsies singing,
     A                 E
that song of the Gypsy Dave
 
       E                         A       E
It was there in the light of the camping fire,
          A         E
I saw her fair face beaming
                         A     E
Her heart in tune to the big guitar,
        A                   E
and the song of the gypsies singing,
     A                 E
that song of the Gypsy Dave
 
E                      A         E
Have you forsaken your house and home?
                       A  E
Have you forsaken your baby?
                       A       E
Have you forsaken your husband dear?
   A                 E
To go with the Gypsy Davey
    A                   E
And sing with the Gypsy Davey
     A                 E
that song of the Gypsy Dave?
 
     E                A       E
Yes, I've forsaken my husband dear,
               A     E
to go with the Gypsy Davey
                     A       E
And I've forsaken my mansion high,
    A                E
but not my blue eyed baby,
A                E
not my blue eyed babe
 
    E                   A       E
She smiled to leave her husband dear,
               A     E
to go with the Gypsy Davey
                               A        E
But the tears come a-trickling down her cheeks,
   A                         E
to think about her blue eyed baby,
   A                         E
to think about her blue eyed babe
 
E                       A        E
Take off take off those buckskin gloves,
        A       E
made of Spanish leather
                     A          E
Come give to me your lily-white hand,
    A                 E
and we'll ride home together,
    A                E
and home again we'll ride
 
      E                 A        E
No, I won't take off my buckskin gloves,
        A       E
made of Spanish leather
                    A      E
I'll go my way from day to day,
    A                   E
and sing with the Gypsy Davey,
    A                 E
the song of the Gypsy Davey,
    A                 E
the song of the Gypsy Dave,
    A                 E
the song of the Gypsy Davey,
    A                 E
the song of the Gypsy Dave
