Gypsy Woman

Lyrics

I was a fool I was so much younger then
 The night she took me by surprise
 I should have known all the trouble that I'd be in
 But then she hooked me with those eyes
 Her drink was gin as she said "Tonight would never gonna end"
 But her love weighed so heavy on my mind
 For she was the live in lover of a drummer I called my friend
 She weren't nothing but a gypsy in disguise
 Hey gypsy woman how'd you do that to me
 Gypsy woman stole my heart and then you set me free
 Gypsy woman how'd you learn to lie like that
 Gypsy woman come on back
 Spending my wages on roses and on wine
 We'd ride the days and we'd dance the nights
 All the things we could do in my old V W
 The city lights never seemed so bright from the reservoir
 And my friends they would warn me
 Saying she's one fickle queen
 You better get out while the getting is good my friend
 And besides her old drummer man is looking
 And he's so big and bad and mean
 But what I didn't know then
 Is what I know too well
 She played me like a violin
 Hey gypsy woman how'd you do that to me
 Gypsy woman stole my heart and then you set me free
 Gypsy woman how'd you learn to love like that
 Gypsy woman come on back
 So you tell me that you're leaving me now
 After all the times that we have been through
 As your clown how am I gonna ever go home
 Somebody tell me what am I gonna do baby oh baby
 And so it goes I've lost my pride and lost my job
 This gypsy woman took nearly every thing I called my own
 It was a big surprise so next time she comes dancing
 Prancing through the town, gonna recognize the gypsy
 I'm gonna recognize the gipsy, gonna recognize the gypsy in disguise
