Gypsy Travelling Girl (Folky song)

1.

Down a country road I ride;

a travelling girl right by my side;

I want to see the whole world wide

with my gypsy travelling girl.

2.

I like to be a gypsy man;

go rolling in my caravan;

have wild adventures while I can

with my gypsy travelling girl.

Chorus:

The travelling life is the life for me;

it’s hard and its simple but it’s free;

just the open road and the fields of green

and the heavenly love of my Gypsy queen.

3.

We spend this carefree life of ours

as happy as the songbirds are;

each night I sleep beneath the stars

with my gypsy travelling girl.

4.

The townies may look down their nose

upon me and my rambling rose

but I wouldn’t swap the life I chose

with my gypsy travelling girl.

Chorus:

The travelling life is the life for me;

it’s hard and its simple but it’s free;

just the open road and the fields of green

and the heavenly love of my Gypsy queen.
