The Rankin Family - Roving Gypsy Boy (Remix) lyrics

Autum leaves are falling The egale takes to flight The open road is a'calling As day breaks slowly from the night Day breaks slowly from the night At the breaking of dawn he stepped to the road In the soft early morn he stepped lightly Humming a song to himself surely owed And all through the day he stepped hightly All through the day he stepped highly They call him the roving gypsy boy He'll never choose to stay They call him the roving gypsy boy A rambler in his day A rambler in his day Ten thousand miles away from home Ten thousand miles or more Ten thousand miles he chose to roam Like an egale he did soar Coast to coast and shore to shore He rose up in the east and set for the west Travelling the whole world all over Searching for something that he loved the best Like a free living gypsy wild rover A free living gypsy wild rover They call him the roving gypsy boy He'll never choose to stay They call him the roving gypsy boy A rambler in his day A rambler in his day He left the high road to live on the low And all different kinds he met there Plenty were the good folk Many were the foe But they all were his friends when he left there There's a lot more to gain from this living than wealth There's a lesson to learn with devotion Be kind to all others as well as yourself Or you'll drift like a boat out on the ocean Drifting like a boat out on the ocean They call him the roving gypsy boy He'll never choose to stay They call him the roving gypsy boy A rambler in his day A rambler in his day They call him the roving gypsy boy He'll never choose to stay They call him the roving gypsy boy A rambler in his day A rambler in his day
