lyrics

Dance Gypsy Dance – Mark Bishop Evans

In a small town north of Salem I met a fair young girl
Her eyes and hair were black as coal, her skin as white as pearl
She asked me if I’d follow her to where the road would bend
And as we walked down thru the night this song came on the wind

Dance gypsy dance, gypsy dance, gypsy dance
Dance gypsy dance, gypsy dance, gypsy dance

As we came down near the bend a light shown in the sky
I saw a bond fire blazing with the flames all reaching high
A dozen wagons circled round all gathered in a ring
And as we stepped into the light, I heard the people sing

Dance gypsy dance, gypsy dance, gypsy dance
Dance gypsy dance, gypsy dance, gypsy dance

As we stood together her head began to sway
The more she moved her body the more the music played
With laughing eyes, she danced away into the center ring
Then all the people clapped their hands, and all began to sing

Dance gypsy dance, gypsy dance, gypsy dance
Dance gypsy dance, gypsy dance, gypsy dance

I watched her dance all thru the night until the coming day
With all the people gathered round I overheard one say
“You’ve never seen a girl like her, she’ll dance from night til dawn
And as I walked back home alone I still could hear her song

Dance gypsy dance, gypsy dance, gypsy dance
Dance gypsy dance, gypsy dance, gypsy dance
