Freeway signs and faded blacktop.
|
Backstage doors and parking lots.
|
That's the world I mostly see.
|
Starin' out of a wide window,
|
A thousand miles away from my home.
|
That's the gypsy in me.
|
|
Aw, the gypsy in me,
|
Can't stay in one place too long.
|
'Cause there's somebody out there,
|
That still ain't heard my song.
|
Yea, so I roll on,
|
To where this road leads.
|
That's the gypsy in me.
|
|
It's in my heart, to bear my soul,
|
With an old guitar and a microphone.
|
I stand up here, and sing what I believe.
|
And then I close my eyes and fold my hands,
|
Thank God I got a girl that understands,
|
And loves the gypsy in me.
|
|
Aw, the gypsy in me,
|
Can't stay in one place too long.
|
'Cause there's somebody out there,
|
That still ain't heard my song.
|
Yea, so I roll on,
|
To where this road leads.
|
That's the gypsy in me.
|
|
You know if I never heard "I Walk the Line",
|
"Free Bird" or "You're Always on my Mind",
|
"Ramblin' Man", "Me and Bobby McGee",
|
If I'd never seen the Man in Black,
|
I wouldn't feel the need to wear this kind of hat,
|
And there wouldn't be a gypsy in me.
|
|
Aw, now, the gypsy in me,
|
Can't stay in one place too long.
|
'Cause there's somebody out there,
|
That still ain't heard my song.
|
Yea, so I roll on,
|
To where this road leads.
|
That's the gypsy in me.
|
|
Mmmmmmmm....
|
I'm just gonna keep rollin' on.
