Hey gypsy where you gonna go
Hey gypsy where you gonna go
I am tired of this waitin’
I ain’t gonna wait no more
Hey mama I’m your baby boy
Hey mama I’m your baby boy
Lets head on home
I’ll give you your favorite toy
We’ve been all over town
Chasin’ the crowds
I’m getting kinda nervous cause the
music’s too loud
Hey Gypsy where we gonna be
This hard love livin’
It’s gettin’ too much for me
You keep on pushin’ me around the clock
I keep on fallin’ and I can’t get up
You know I love you but enough’s enough
You move too fast girl you play too rough
Hey gypsy here we are again
Hey gypsy I’m your only friend
You can treat me bad mama
You’ll never get another again
Wandering Hearts and Restless Spirits
