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
