The Gypsy Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wake up and sing me some new love song
You've lain here beside me all the night long
Will you remember? Will you return
Or leave me to sorrow and yearn?

[Verse 2]
I am a poor boy, I have no gold
All I have owned has been bargained and sold
But I will give you the sun and the stars
I will show you what you are

[Chorus]
Nancy, will you come? Will you follow after me?
My coach it is waiting, away we will be
Will you leave your husband's castle, his land and estate
And follow a rovin' gypsy?

[Verse 3]
Once I was rich as the king with his crown
Carriages and coaches and sеrvants dressed in down
But I was robbed by a bold highwayman
Lеft without a penny in my hand

[Verse 4]
Now, just like he a robber I may be
Who roves along the highway and sleeps among the trees
But I have a heart as true as any lord
And more than many can afford

[Chorus]
No, I will not follow, follow after you, your story is all lies
And your heart it isn't true
I will not leave my husband, his land or estate
To follow a rovin' gypsy

[Verse 5]
You are a high-born lady yet with me you have lain
Knowing you would never, ever see me again
So before I go my duty must be paid
For all that I have done and left unsaid

[Verse 6]
I will take my payment from the riches that you wear
The rings upon your fingers and the jewels in your hair
You can keep your husband's castle, his land and estate
Farewell, my Lady Nancy

[Chorus]
Nancy don't you follow, follow after me
For I am a rover, and my heart is fancy free
And now I have your jewels to buy me food and wine
I am the rovin' gypsy

[Chorus]
La-la, la, la, la-la, la, la-la, la
La-la, la-la-la, la, la, la, la-la, la
La, la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la, la, la, la, la

[Chorus]
La-la, la, la, la-la, la, la-la, la
La-la, la-la-la, la, la, la, la-la, la
La, la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la, la, la, la, la

[Chorus]
La-la, la, la, la-la, la, la-la, la
La-la, la-la-la, la, la, la, la-la, la
La, la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la, la, la, la, la
