"Hey Gyp (Dig the Slowness)" is a song by Donovan. The name "Gyp" refers to his friend Gyp Mills. It has been covered by Eric Burdon and The Animals and The Soul Survivors.

The Animals cover was released in December 1966 on their album "Animalism". After the reformed band Eric Burdon & The Animals performed it on their live shows, it was released as a single under the name of the new band.

In July 1966, Hickory Records (U.S) released the Donovan song as A-side (b/w "The War Drags On" 45-1417).
