Gypsy Songman |
I’m Gypsy Songman, yes sir, you’d like to hear a song |
Well I’ll pick it for you now and play it all night long |
If the blues is all you see |
This song is what you need |
Gypsy Songman passing by |
My whole life is a song and I’ll share it with you now |
Just a-pickin' and a singin', I’ll get by somehow |
A dime would help me please |
A smile is all I need |
Gypsy Songman passing by |
Kids come a runnin' as I pass by. |
they all want to see |
Say «Hey Gypsy Songman, play a song for me» |
Their eyes glued on the strings |
Dancin' as I sing |
Gypsy Songman passing by |
I’ve got as stage on every corner, got a hall on every street |
My hat is my coin box, this song is what you need |
It’s just a-swapping time |
This song is for your dime |
Gypsy Songman passing by |
So as I leave you now, please remember me this time |
I’m a man who sang a song for your nickels and your dimes |
Today you saw me play |
As I stopped along the way |
Gypsy Songman passing by |
