Melissa |
| Crossroads, seem to come and go, yeah. |
| The gypsy flies from coast to coast, |
| Knowing many, loving none, |
| Bearing sorrow, having fun. |
| But, back home he’ll always run, |
| To sweet Melissa. |
| Mmmm-hmmm. |
| Freight train, each car looks the same, all the same. |
| And no one knows the gypsy’s name, |
| And no one hears his lonely sighs, |
| There are no blankets where he lies. |
| Lord, in his deepest dreams the gypsy flies, |
| With sweet Melissa. |
| Mmmm-hmmm. |
| Again, the mornin’s come. |
| Again, he’s on the run. |
| A sunbeam’s shinin through his hair. |
| Fear not to have a care. |
| Well, pick up your gear and gypsy roll on. |
| Roll on. |
| Crossroads, will you ever let him go? |
| Lord, Lord. |
| Or will you hide the dead man’s ghost? |
| Or will he lie, beneath the clay? |
| Or will his spirit float away? |
| But, I know that he won’t stay, |
| Without Melissa. |
| Yes, I know that he won’t stay, yeah, |
| Without Melissa. |
| Lord, Lord, it’s all the same. |
| Mmmmm-hmmmmm. |
