Dance, Gypsy, Dance

[Verse 1]
There's a harvest moon and the stars are bright
(Dance gypsy dance)
There's a little bit of frost on the grass tonight
(Dance gypsy dance)
Over in the meadow hid away from them all
Dance all night to the fiddle's call
Down by the river where the trees grow tall
(Dance gypsy dance)
I know about you and I know where you've been
(Dance gypsy dance)
You stole some money from a crippled man
(Dance gypsy dance)
Then you hit him in the head with a walking cane
Pushed him outside in the freezing rain
But I bet you wouldn't ever do that again
(Dance gypsy dance)

[Chorus]
Turning Turning
Round the fire
Burning, Burning
Higher and Higher

[Verse 2]
Now you gotta reckon with the dead man's son
(Lay gypsy lay)
He's headed this way with a bullet in his gun
(Pray, gypsy, pray)
Yeah, the hanging mob is riding all night
But they can't be here till tomorrow night
And you'll be gone by the morning light
(Dance gypsy dance)

[Chorus]
And a shot rang out in the midnight breeze
(Dance gypsy dance)
From a Winchester rifle back in the trees
(Dance gypsy dance)

[Verse 3]
And nobody moved and nobody spoke
But way down yonder by the hollow oak
Hanging up there by the end of that rope
(Dance gypsy dance)
Over in the meadow hid away from them all
Dance all night to the fiddle's call
Down by the river where the trees grow tall
(Dance gypsy dance)
