Gipsy Girl

Her face got so red when I took her hand
And I know she didn’t understand
When I asked her for a dance

We danced ‘neath the shining of the soft moonlight
While the gipsy played I held her tight
Until we couldn’t stand no more

Gypsy girl, please, don’t go away
When the caravan’s leaving, I’m asking you to stay
You with your eyes black as coal
They can look in my soul

I hope and pray there never comes a day you’ll be gone
We drank some bottles of that sweet sherry wine
And I felt like she blew my mind
When she was dancing by the fire

Then one day I went back to the place
Where I first saw her pretty little face
Nothing was left behind
Only a bottle of wine

Just to remind me forever and ever again
Of that sweet gipsy girl
Gipsy girl
Aha, gipsy girl

Aha
