Rock And Roll Gypsies |
To the faraway places and friends |
Of the people and the places I’ve been |
I’ll sing you a song, and I won’t keep you long |
For the tambourine’s playin', and the carnival’s callin' me on |
And the rock and roll gypsies are ridin' tonight |
On the carnival strips they’ll stay |
And the golden earrings laugh at the light |
As life is more than a play |
For tomorrow will soon be yesterday |
To the motherless children who ride |
On the shadowless highway at night |
It’s more than a game |
More than fortune or fame |
For the winner takes nothing and the loser gets all that remains |
And the rock and roll gypsies are ridin' tonight |
On the carnival strips they’ll stay |
And the golden earrings laugh at the light |
As life is more than a play |
For tomorrow will soon be yesterday |
And the rock and roll gypsies are ridin' tonight |
On the carnival strips they’ll stay |
And the golden earrings laugh at the light |
As life is more than a play |
For tomorrow will soon be yesterday |
